Jamais Vu : comes from the French, meaning literally, never seen. It is the complete opposite of the French term déjà vu, meaning literally, already seen. To a person experiencing jamais vu, something which has been experienced on a number of occasions or something familiar to the subject now feels as if it is being experienced for the first time. This in contrast to a feeling that something has been felt or experienced before as in a case of déjà vu. Jamais vu is often associated with certain forms of epilepsy and amnesia.
