Seeing the colours when you hear a word and sounds is called synaesthesia, which means your senses are joined.

As for tasting the words that called Lexical-gustatories. There meant to be two separate conditions, but its very rare for you to have both. Usually they are experienced from childhood.

I couldn't find any scientific information though sorry but im sure if you look it up you'll find something.

it may be some form of OCD, but i'm not sure. I would try talking to a therapist.

Actually, nothing is wrong with you.
I mean, most people don't experience this..but few percentage of peopel do.
I wish i could give you the scientific name for it but i honestly do not remember it.
Don't worry; nothings' wrong with you.

Do you, by any chance, have a cleft palate?? Perhaps you're tasting your own brain with your tongue....

I think what you're experiencing is called synesthesia.
