          My first experience with it was when I made up a little lawn mowing business to fund an electric guitar in high school. After a couple hours of mowing, I’d find myself repeating

          Is it?
          Wikipedia says:

          Jamais vu is often described as the opposite of déjà vu

            Effectively it’s a more general version of it. Not specific to words and not specific to the why we feel this way. You’re right it’s not the same thing. But I meant that it’s another way to name the effect you’re experiencing.
