photismn.

Brit.

/ˈfəʊtɪz(ə)m/, U.S.

/ˈfoʊˌtɪz(ə)m/

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element; originally modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: Greek ϕωτ- , ϕῶς , -ism suffix.

Etymology: < ancient Greek ϕωτ-, ϕῶς light (see photo- comb. form) + -ism suffix, originally after German Photisma (1881 in the source reviewed in quot. 1881). Compare also German Photismus (1904 or earlier), and ancient Greek ϕωτισμός illumination, light, post-classical Latin photismus (1661 in a work title).

A subjective sensation of colour or light, esp. one occurring in association with stimulation of another sense, as in synaesthesia.
