Words Seldom Seen: Eidetic

Eidetic

Adjective: mental images having unusual vividness and detail, as if actually visible. Eidetic memory is often called photographic memory.

Example: Eidetic memory is more common in young people than in the old.

Credit to reader Larry B for this contribution. I had to write it down because I don’t have eidetic memory. In fact I suffer from CRAFT.
