I can see colors for any word or smell. All of them, no exceptions. Just say a word.

Me too. I also see colours when I hear music. Even peoples names have different colours for me.

Purple near the beginning the rest is gray and green. Very intelligent trick to put that word in.

Does Mango Shaped Space actually portray synesthesia in an accurate way? Also is it fun or annoying sometimes or just normal? Sorry for the questions, just trying to better understand it, which I can't do fully since I don't have it

I have never read it but I am intrigued. But from the preview yes. The scene in the preview feels relatable EDIT: yes yes it dies. I read it and yes. I am actually bilingual and yes the trying to connect words with color is confusing. I still speak both though. ( I was born in Spain) let me add that I don’t see the same colors for words that the main character does.

I have synesthesia too! For me the words don’t have colors but each individual letter, ans well as all number lines and calendars are pictured in the space around me in different directions, and also every sound (even non-music) has a shape and a color. I noticed the comment about A Mango Shaped Space, and I’ve read it and i thought it was very accurate! Obviously her colors and shapes didn’t line up with mine like, at all, but it was definitely portrayed well
