: how are we sure that we all see the same colors ?

Question

I’m not sure how should I phrase it but lets give it a try.

How are we sure that the color I see as green, for exemple, is the same color as someone else’s green?

Is it possible that the color I call green is an other color for someone else’s eyes but we name it the same because we grew up with people naming this color “green”?
I really hope im being clear enough

There is a YouTube video about it from vsauce, greatly explained that you and I might see the color green and agree that it’s green.

But your brains converts your green it to something that would be my red.
And maybe my red, would be would your brain sees as green and so on.

So we agree it’s green, but what it looks like might be Vet different.

I guess the only thing the same I black and white as they cpintoin all color or none
