'Take a look at my new car!' Uncle Ben said proudly to Robin, Alice and Robo. 'Wow!' They all exclaimed. 'Oh, I feel that I have seen it before.' Robo looked puzzled. 'What? Impossible! It is my own design!' Uncle Ben argued. 'Robo, you have the super power of seeing the future?' Roblin asked Robo. 'No, I don't' Robo replied. 'I think it is an experience of déjà vu' Alice suggested.

"Déjà vu" is a French phrase meaning "already seen". It refers to the experience of feeling familiar with a situation or something which actually has not happened or appeared before.

Many people have this feeling at least once in their lifetime. However, scientists still cannot explain the reason of this "déjà vu" experience. It is often said that this is a feeling related to what we have encountered in dreams.
