Jamais vu


Main article: Jamais vu

Jamais vu is a term in psychology (from the French, meaning "never seen") which is used to describe any familiar situation which is not recognized by the observer.


Often described as the opposite of déjà vu, jamais vu involves a sense of eeriness and the observer's impression of seeing the situation for the first time, despite rationally knowing that he or she has been in the situation before.


Jamais vu is more commonly explained as when a person momentarily does not recognize a word, person, or place that they already know.


Jamais vu is sometimes associated with certain types of amnesia and epilepsy.
