i am trying to see if there is any common consensus.
do not try and associate this question with real-world objects or ideas. Purely choose a color based on the nature of the letter E.
i personally pick green but I might be tweakin
Green
Wait, is this why the show is called Bluey?!?
It’s green. If you have colours associated with letters or numbers, there’s a good chance you have a form of synesthesia.
I figure my mild associations come from magnetic alphabets on the fridge or something. Especially since I don’t have all of them mapped. I think all I really have is 3 is red
Green because it has the same vowel sound as the letter E in English.
Emerald. Evergreen. Eucalyptus. Envy. Enamor. Endive. Everything. Everyone. Everywhere. Earth.
Green checks out.
White
Capital E is yellow, lowercase e is green.
Yellow
I have synesthesia and it’s definitely black
I have synesthesia and it’s always been turquoise (green/blue) to me. Interesting how many people seem to agree with me since I thought it would be pretty individual.
It could be the associations from the colorful alphabets you were exposed to as a kid.
https://www.discovermagazine.com/lots-of-cases-of-synesthesia-are-based-on-alphabet-magnets-748I had thought of that but surely we didn’t all have the same alphabet magnets.
In the before-times there were only a few companies that made these. Now that there are more Chinese manufacturers, it’s not quite as centralized to a couple brands, so yes, a LOT of kids and schools all had that exact same Fisher Price magnet set.
Where I was originally going with this was to say it seems to be consistent across people from different countries with different education systems and different educational materials.
But, now you’ve had me looking up vintage Fisher Price letter magnets. And yes, they do seem to use fairly consistent colours over time with the E being consistently blue so you could be on to something. Though not all the letters line up with my personal synesthesia, maybe about half do.
What the actual fuck?
I was going to write blue/greenish. How can that possibly be a thing??
Yeh there’s often a census, it’s quite weird. Whats nis 9 for you?
9 is dark red
It’s a brick red for me.
It has a taste too. It’s not dry like bricks but it’s a dry taste. Not spicy. Not plain. Slightly fruity, an acid fruity.
What about:
ℰ
To me it’s more like yellow.
What color is no caps?
What a ridiculous and unnecessary question. The letter E is clearly light green.
Seems to be, yes.
As a non-synaesthete, I dug around in my brain until the answer “white” came to me.
The reason: I am old and Control+E on a Commodore 64 (and some of its close relatives) would turn the cursor and text colour to white. It was the only Control+<letter> that affected a colour change too.
Feel like its Green
Green agreed
