I came across this article and wanted to share it. I just learned something new! :P
I didn't realize all these phenomena had their own name. Interesting.

I think most of us can say we've experienced all of these at some point; I know I can.

Déjà Vu
Déjà vu is the feeling of being certain that you’ve already experienced a certain situation previously. It’s as if what has happened is repeating itself in a new moment. A lot of the times, this is because it actually has.

Déjà Vécu
Déjà vécu is similar to Déjà Vu but it is much more immersive. In a moment of Déjà Vu, it’s something you’ve SEEN before, but in a moment of Déjà Vécu, it’s something you’ve FELT before.

Déjà Visité
Déjà visité is an amazing feeling of familiarity with a place you’ve never been. If you’re walking around a new city or perhaps forest and you have this strange feeling of being there before – well maybe you have in a dreams state or on a higher frequency. I was walking around a neighborhood in Santa Cruz – a place I never thought I’d visit.

Déjà Senti
Déjà senti – stemming from the word sentimental, is the phenomenon of having “already felt” something. This sometimes translates to thinking you just spoke but then realizing you didn’t say anything at all.

Jamais Vu
Jamais vu – this is a crazy one. It’s like the opposite of Déjà Vu, where something isn’t recognized. This experience happens all the time when you say a word over and over and you just can’t even believe it’s a word anymore.

Presque Vu
Presque vu this is that annoying sensation of something being ‘on the tip of your tongue’. You can just almost grasp the word or idea you’re trying to remember but you can’t quite get it.

L’esprit de l’Escalier
L’esprit de l’escalier – literally translating to ‘staircase wit’ is that awful feeling of knowing what to say AFTER it’s already too late.
