I used to ask this question when I was a kid. |

Philosophically, it's a very interesting question. In practice however, I would imagine that those of us with normal colour vision see things more or less the same, because our genetic code and brain structure are essentially identical, and this seems far more likely than being highly similar yet having completely different perceptions of individual colours. |

I have thought about this a lot myself...I just don't really know how to explain it. I'm sure there are environmental and genetic effects that can change how we all percieve collors. My theory is that for the majority of the population, there is a difference, but it may be too slight for people with "normal" vision to notice, but I have no way to test this, so it's all speculation. |

How can a colour blind person prove that he's colour blind? (without medical help) |
|
They have tests of pictures made out of colors that are different in hue, but the same in tone. |
|
It really depends on how you define your terms. |

This subject always confuses me with colour blindness. |

my dad taught me the colours wrong and i only found out when i went to school. i grew up thinking red was called blue, yellow was called red and blue was called yellow. he also never told me the names for non-primary colours, he just told me to say things like yellow-red for orange and blue-yellow for green (which for me was red-blue and yellow-red). |
