Tammet’s talent lays in the numbers. He can solve astronomical calculations incredibly fast – he says that he can visualize numbers with their unique shape, texture and color. He says: “I learned to count, like anyone else, at a young age, and when I did I would see colors. I would see pictures in my mind. I assumed at the time that everyone saw numbers as I did.”
Daniel Tammet has also an unusual linguistic skill. He can speak ten languages: English, French, Finnish, German, Spanish, Lithuanian, Romanian, Icelandic, Welsh, and Esperanto, plus one language he created, the Mänti, based on the Scandinavian languages.
