Just a difference in linguistics? You can't see what you can't define.
- jccalhoun 9y agoit isn't that they don't see it but they don't distinguish it. There is the tired cliche of someone going to a paint store and looking at 20 shades of "white" that all have different names and saying "they all look white to me." Of course the person can tell they are different shades of white but they don't break them down into different names.
- Sangermaine 9y agoThis is silly. They're not alien creatures. They have the same eyes any human does, and those eyes receive the same electromagnetic waves that comprise what we call colors as you do. They can certainly see everything you see, they just describe it differently.
