What is Déjà senti?!

What is Déjà senti?

No, it's different from deje vu. Here's the wikipedia exerpt:

This phenomenon specifies something 'already felt.' Unlike the implied precognition of déjà vécu, déjà senti is primarily or even exclusively a mental happening, has no precognitive aspects, and rarely if ever remains in the afflicted person's memory afterwards.

Dr. John Hughlings Jackson recorded the words of one of his patients who suffered from temporal lobe or psychomotor epilepsy in an 1889 paper:

As with Dr. Jackson's patient, some temporal-lobe epileptics may experience this phenomenon.


Answers:

it is the french equivillent to Deja Vu. if you don't know what that is then lets say you are doing something like washing dishes and this feeling comes over you that you have been here doing the same thing. Just exactly the same. Or lets say you are at a store trying on something. you get a feeling that you have been in this same store in the same dressing room with the same outfit and trying it on looking in the mirror just the same way......i don't know how else to explain it.
