(31-34)         When you first meet Meggie, you may think she’s strange. She often tells peoplewhich word “tastes” good and who has a “delicious” name. But she’s not crazy. She hassynesthesia, something only one in 2,000 people has.
       People who have synesthesia experience the world differently. For some people,different words “taste” differently, for some, numbers or letters have colors, and for some,music “touches” parts of their bodies. Many of them experience more than one kind ofsynesthesia, while some have just one, like Meggie.
       Each of them has their individual experience – two people with synesthesia may both“feel” music, but they almost never feel the music in the same way. For example, one mayfeel the music of the violin lightly brushing his face； the other may feel it on her ankle. Andone’s experience of synesthesia is always the same. If they see the number 5 in the colorblue, then 5 is blue every time they see it.
        There’s one thing about synesthesia: it can’t be “turned off.” If you have synesthesia,you’ll experience it all the time. Meggie once met a guy and his name made her think of thetaste of bad eggs. He was a fun guy, but after thinking about his name all night, she felt toosick to be friends with him. Even so, she still likes this “gift” because that’s what makesher different.
