Jamais Vu

Jamais Vu  :  comes from the French, meaning literally, never seen.  It is the complete opposite of the French term d�j� 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 d�j� vu.  Jamais vu is often associated with certain forms of epilepsy and amnesia.
