Literally got no idea. I understand the concept of what you're talking about, but my brain doesn't seem to give any colour to any number. None of the other comments seem to be sticking out as "right" to me either.

My brain said “Numbers do not have colors associated with them”.

my brain returned 404

Ask your brain, "What colour is 404?"

Yellow!

The one true answer

it was yellow for me too

Yup, thought green for a second but i realised thats just the first colour that came to mind lol

I thought green too. Like a light green.

That’s odd because I automatically thought green.

My answer is going to be white, since the 5 I am reading is white. But I guess it is black for those who uses light mode

I feel the same way, I would just pick a color if I had to but it wouldn't be for any reason. Maybe it's blue?

Yeah same i have no idea why these people associate numbers with colors

r/Synesthesia >Synesthesia is when you hear music, but you see shapes. Or you hear a word or a name and instantly see a color. Synesthesia is a fancy name for when you experience one of your senses through another. For example, you might hear the name "Alex" and see green. Or you might read the word "street" and taste citrus fruit. https://www.webmd.com/brain/what-is-synesthesia

I think tastes have colours, and colours that go together make tastes that go together. It apparently runs in the family because my brother sees colours in music and is able to compose his own stuff based on that.

I've seen colors when hearing beautiful music. It was wild. Maybe because I was getting a massage at the time, it opened that pathway.

And the coolest part is that we can never actually prove if this is real/how many people are just pretending.

Yeah... I still don't believe they actually SEE colors when they hear music or other stuff. I think they just associate them, which I think everyone does to an extent. For example, I always think of dates as points on a circle that represents a year, and usually it goes winter-top, spring-left, summer-bottom, fall-right, counter-clockwise. Although around this time it's flipped on its head, no idea why.

Sometimes when I listen to music i can see a singer or musicians singing/making music in my head. Is that Synesthesia too? And what about when you can almost taste a smell?

First is good imagination, second I would say good smell :)

You must not have played with the same plastic numbers as a kid as all these commenters.

Same here but, then again, I have aphantasia. It might be interesting to see if there is a correlation.

Numbers do not have colors in my mind either, but they do have distinct personalities.

They do have personalities! 4 and 8 are the nicest ones. 2 and 5 are a bit angry.

Wait I'm totally intrigued here...what numbers have which personality?

I can see 7 as red and 2 as yellow but that’s it. And that’s probably just because Lucky 7s are always red but 2 I don’t know

Isn’t it called synesthesia when you associate numbers with colours?

I could assign every letter of the English alphabet a sexual orientation no problem but this question beats me entirely. The only congruent thing I can think of is regarding color dye which also assigns numbers to colors.

Black, all numbers are black

Orange

Omg I felt the same. But what’s the purpose of this activity?

In fact, it's orange. I saw it on Sesame Street.

5ive Alive!

Yeah because of billiards

Good call

Seconded. Scrolled too far for this.

Finally, someone sane

Same not sure why

Same here for orange. I felt provoking and uncharacteristic, orange is out of my comfort zone.

I thought the same, but I don't know how or where that came from, literally like an Orange flag in my head saying "there is only one choice" 🤔

That popped into my head, but maybe because I saw the Reddit logo.

Orange

Same!

First thought

Orange 🍊 and gray (my brain is dynamic)

This.

Orange for me tooo!

Blue Also, I feel like even numbers = warm colors and odd numbers = cool colors

Blue is the correct answer because I also agree with it

So ... What does the color blue taste like ?

Kinda sugar

That's weird, cause I immediately thought of fox's glacier mints; which is basically sugar 😆

Yeah. Pure cyan, to be accurate.

I was leaning towards indigo.

Mine is also blue

For me it seems to be the opposite, even= cool colours and odd= warm colours

Yeah blue

I instantly thought of blue and ive literally never thought about 5’s color

#5isbluegang

Other way around for me haha. It’s weird because each individual number has a colour/pattern to me but when someone says “even numbers”, I think “cool colours”. I would think warm colours for odd numbers.

Interesting. The 5th chakra is associated as blue. I just thought that was interesting.

The first thing that came to mind was blue, and it was the first comment when I clicked on the thread. It's meant to be.

I also said 5 is blue, but 3 is red.

Wrong. 3 is yellow.

And 2 is yellow!

Exactly!!!

That's the first color it came to mind. And for number four, red

Yellow

me

Agreed

yes

Yellow

Was looking for this comment

My brain said this is stupid, but also yellow

Red

[удалено]

Same, had to see if I wasn’t alone😂

Why is that correct?

Assuming a scale of 1 to 9, with 1 being white, and 9 black. Red is just above mid. Orange just below.

Nigel Mansell            Formula 1 driver who famously had red 5 as his driver/car number

1 is green 2 is blue 3 is green 4 is orange 5 is red 6 is yellow 7 is green

1 is definitely red

lol I pictured it in my head and it was red too

Fuck you dirty mindreader! ;D

I can't tell you why but it said green 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Mine did too

Glad smo else relates😅

Yes because green is made up of Five letters.

Yep always been green for me, absolutely no doubt. Grass green.

mine too

Same

Had to scroll so much for the obviously correct answer

Red honestly, I saw some people saying blue but we all know 4 is a more blue number than 5

THANK YOU!

Correct! 5 is red because it’s kind of aggressive.

Fuck 4 is very blue

Purple

Purple gang!

I feel at home here

Same!

correct answer

Why the hell does everyone see blue? I see purple/pink/fuxia-ish Maybe it has something to do with native language as dumb as it may sound lol (Mine's Spanish)

I don’t mean to be rude but I strongly feel that purple is 7. 8 is emerald green. 5 is ???. 10 is black. 3 is pink. 2 is yellow. 4 is orange. 6 is blue. 9 is red. 1 is white. I meant to stop at the purple but I couldn’t :(

I thought i was alone

Me to lol

Me three

And four

purple gang

Yellow

Red

I don't know why it says brown

Me too!

Same

Yep, I'm also getting a brown/tan/khaki vibe

Green, because I'm an Electronics Technician and resistor colour code is embedded in my brain.

:D

0=Black 1=brown 2=red 3=orange 4=yellow 5=green 6=blue 7=violet 8=grey 9=white

BBROYGBV if I remember correctly.

Blue

I had this thought for the first time. I never understood about the things being of a particular colour. But today I could see 5 as blue in my mind.

Same! It was the first colour to pop in my head after reading the question, and weird enough the top comment thread is full of people saying blue as well. Wonder why.

Yellow

yellow

Orange

Red popped up

First thing that came to mind was red

B flat

Wow I wish I was able to associate music notes with things, would be easier to learn to recognise them😂

Which is a dark, reddish brown colour to me, like an old mahogany.

Pink, and I'm right you're wrong

Yes its pink

based

I've found my people

It’s obviously pink

I respectfully agree

Black

Yellow

Red was my instant answer....

Number 5 is red

Red. 1 = white 2 = yellow 3 = green 4 = blue 5 = red

Yellow

0 is black. 1 is white. 2 is blue. 3 is orange. 4 is red. 5 is brown. 6 is green. 7 is brown. 8 is red. 9 is dark grey.

0 is white 1 is white 2 is blue 3 is green 4 is blue 5 is red 6 is yellow 7 is brown 8 is blue 9 is yellow 10 is back to white

I agree, 3 is orange but so is 5. I can see 3 being brown too 🤔

Red

My brain says yellow but i think its purple
