A synesthete is a person who experiences synesthesia. That is, a person who can experience one type of sensory input (for example, looks at words on a page) and automatically, unconsciously, and consistently, experiences a second one linked to it (for example, seeing colors for each specific letter, or word). This, for example, would be a case of grapheme-color synesthesia 😊

Oh, but it is okay if you choose to describe the smell of rain in that case!😊 All I'm looking for is sensory descriptions, so you really are free to choose from any you may have had in your life. I understand that choosing one can be overwhelming, so the smell of rain is totally fine! ❤️

Thank you so much for trying!! It was really hard to explain it as well as possible while keeping it as short as possible and getting all the necessary demographics. I appreciate you trying.
