Let's try this again. This category is Words and WORDPLAY and the question is "What is Veja Du?"

I'll obviously have to spell this out. I have a dictionary. The term Deja Vu is in it. The question is not "What is Deja Vu?".

The question is "What is Veja Du?"

The question has been asked once before but it was a mistake.

'Veja Du' seems to mean the opposite of 'Deja Vu'

It means:

"Veja Du: The feeling dyslexics get when they've read this before.
Veja Du: The feeling that you have always been elsewhere before.
Veja Du: The feeling that you have never been there before."

The term déjà vu, not Veja Du, (French: "already seen", also called paramnesia) describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The term was created by a French psychic researcher, Émile Boirac (1851–1917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques (The Future of Psychic Sciences), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate French concentrator at the University of Chicago. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eerieness," "strangeness," or "weirdness." The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience "genuinely happened" in the past.

The experience of déjà vu seems to be very common; in formal studies 70% or more of the population report having experienced it at least once. References to the experience of déjà vu are also found in literature of the past, indicating it is not a new phenomenon. However, in laboratory settings, it is extremely difficult to invoke the déjà vu experience, making it a subject with few empirical studies.

It's "Deja Vu" not Veja Du. It's a kind of feeling you get sometimes that you've been there before or you've done it exactly the way what you are seeing now and you find everything same which makes you ponder for a while: how??? when???.

It's Deja Vu actually, means a memory flash back that same thing/object happened/observed before :)

A daft attempt at twisting an existing phrase.

Behold the dream
a sketch before your eyes
a vision of yourself
as seen by yourself
in another time...
