0- transparent, (like a clear lego)
1- white
2- yellow
3- orange
4- pink
5- red
6- purple(dark)
7- green
8- brown
9- blue

I always see these colours, since I learned to count. I can't say the same about letters tho. And these days of the week are pretty weak in comparison as well.

Monday- yellow
Tuesday- light green
Wednesday- medium green
Thursday- dark green
Friday- red
Saturday- pink
Sunday- White or orange???

i see numbers in colors, but the system is too complicated to post and im not sure how the colors are called (i would have to use this #whatevanumberz lookin code XD) numbers 0-9 have colors, some of them very similiar to others so i frequently get mistaken while counting writing etc (can't remember my own phone number - the digits have very simiiar colors and its all reddish brown), and 10+ numbers have one color defined by sequence of digits (its not just melted color of all digits, the order is important here, some digits give more color than the others, and some dont have any effect on color of the number)

i should write somewhere how i see numbers 0-50, with actuall colors not only the names of them so i coul post it in places like that

I see numbers as colours a lot. It all corresponds as well. Some numbers have a vague colour that changes slightly where you use it eg. 2 is red, but in 72 it is dark pink, but in 12 its red. But its still the same sort of colour.

0 - grey
1 - dark blue (sometimes)
2 - red
3 - green (ALWAYS)
4 - red or blue or orange
5 - dark blue
6 - green or red
7 - yellow (ALWAYS)
8 - light blue (I think)
9 - a dark colour, maybe dark blue or red
10 - doesnt really have one

like I said, it corresponds eg. 72 is my favourite number because it has a lot of yellow in it and a tiny drop of pink. 7 is yellow and 2 is sometimes pink. It works with almost every number below 100, then it all goes white. Also, negative numbers are grey and foggy.

Its an interesting thing, but I love it!

That's awesome! :D

I don't see that at all. It'd be kind of fun. I've read that people with synestesia can remember more information because they have more than just the text or the shape or the sound to work with to memorize the info.

I perceive loud low frequency noises as touch (kind of sorta maybe). Bass, diesel trucks, footsteps above me, etc... they drive me crazy.

0 - White

2 - green
3 - blue
4 - purple
5 - reddish orange
6 - royal blue
7 - yellow
8 - bright green
9 - red

Letters, days, months, etc all have colors too. I also have several other forms of syn.

Number-color associations?
...I only do that with normalized vectors.

1,0,0 - red
0,1,0 - green
0,0,1 - blue

2-Red
3-Blue
4-Green
5-Brown

I do it for letters too, but that'd take another 26 lines.

I made this picture some time ago showing how I "see" numbers. The only difference now is that 1 and 5 are similar to 9, rather than having no colour.
