The most common form of synesthesia is to hear sounds as colors. A person with synesthesia might hear the number three as blue or the letter D as red. Someone might always see green upon hearing the word April. Another person might see different colors while listening to music. Some people also taste colors. To one person,beef might taste blue and to another,yellow. Some people experience feelings in color. For example,one person with synesthesia reports feeling pain as the color orange.
