yeah, i forgot to mention i think they could possibly be able to dream of shapes, but definitely not colors
colors area completely visual experience and somebody born blind couldnt have even a preconcieved notion of what they might look like because nobody could explain what they look like.

just try explaining blue without you using the word blue, try explaining what it looks like without making a reference to any color
you could say "faded blue", "dusky blue", "ocean blue" etc etc etc

but in order to understand it, you first have to know what blue is
