Aesthetics for synesthetics
Huh! I always have E with green (and the number 5, too. E is the 5th letter of the alphabet, and that spurious association with green can’t be accidental). D is definitely yellow; there’s nothing brighter. To me, though, that kind of pink belongs on F (or, really, F#). B is definitely blue for me, too, and it’s kind of gratifying to see that here, since I always suspected the association to be a lazy alliterative one. The strange thing is that for my ear, C and A would have their respective colors switched, with C being a royal purple (somehow more navy-purple, indigo) and A being red. Anyway! Video below.
