This poll brought to you by Whatcha's Synesthesia™.

If you see 'a' as a color colour not listed above, leave your answer in the comments!

Maybe it's 'cause pink doesn't reign supreme 😏

From a fellow synesthete, for me personally, it's something like a mauve or dusty purple-pink shade. It doesn't remind me of gray like most mauve shades do though, so it's not as dark in tone.

Based on this color palette on the shade of dusty rose and various examples of what it might look like, the closest match is the middle.
Image

Ideally, the perfect match is a little brighter. It would be as vibrant as the fourth swatch while keeping the same shade as the middle, but I haven't found a photo that shows what I mean with that. I think I also see more of a purple tone than a pink, but it's not important.

So yeah, it's mauve. At least, something close to that.

I was obligated by my annoyance at the 'u' in "colour" to respond with the COLOR answer.

However, I do think 'a' is a a red, orange, or even a reddish purple.^-^

I would definitely say red! I don't have associations with every letter & number but 1/red (or black)/A, 2/blue/B, & 3/green/C, 4/yellow/D for sure.

ps. it's definitely "color" <.<
& A is the very best letter! :]

I'm going to say red because, well I'm thinking it's red.
But on the other hand I wish I could go twice because I'm also thinking orange, but anyways.

For me, ‘A’ is a light pink color. It changed shades when applied to other things, like a word that starts with ‘A’ will most likely be a pink color. But not always.
“your highness” is gender neutral


so if you are ever confused about my pronouns


that’l work


alternatively “your majesty”, “my liege”, and “supreme overlord”


*please note “your grace” is also acceptable
