Synesthesia

I associate memories of anything and everything I know with particular places I've been to and am familiar with. Also I associate how much I'm used to an environment with how 'warm' it feels, do I have synesthesia?

very interesting i would love to see colors while eating/listening to music!

i bet he would make an interesting chef!

This synesthesiac eats food and has acid trips.

I have grapheme colour synaesthesia. I thought it was totally normal til my boyfriend's mum was absolutely fascinated by a comment about the colour of a Saturday. Been doing some research since then. Really interesting and weird!

I'm doing a project on synesthesia and this helped a lot, thanks for sharing.

hearing words, seeing words, or do you actually have to think of the word in your mind?

also, if you don't mind, are you bilingual? it comes to mind that if you taste words then what if you hear/think/see words you don't know or what happens when you learn new words? (in your original language or a new one)

I can just taste words. Whenever I hear a word, I taste food along with it. For example, "Maria"=whipped cream, "assignment"=plain pasta, "dog"= sunflower seeds, etc. It's weird; I know. Yes, I am bilingual. I speak Russian and English fluently and for some reason, i taste more words in English than in Russian. But I had this since I was a little girl and all the words that I tasted from that time, I can still taste now and nothing's changed.

it says that he tastes things in the same flavor as we do... but since there is also a color attributed to the taste that is apparently significant enough to his mind, he does not eat by taste alone. the color must please him in the same way the taste does.

you can think of it this way: when you see certain people where certain things like the infamous lime-green tank top or a flaming pink tee-shirt on a guy... it's sort of disturbing. that man has the same problem with certain flavor-colors.

oh ok.. thanks a lot! :)
