- stcredzero 16y agoYes, and if only a small minority of the population has this mutation, then words for the other colors they perceive would never become part of the language. In fact, it would be almost impossible for Tetrachromats to discover others like themselves.
- po 16y agoI think the standard way a tetrachromatic person would discover they are that way is they walk around all day wondering why everyone is wearing mismatched colors and nobody seems to notice or agree with them.
- stcredzero 16y agoDon't a lot of women already wonder about a lot of men in this way? (Tetrachromacy gene is on the X chromosome, and seems to express more often in women.)
