How do you experience microtonality?

When I hear microtonality in music, my brain rounds up or down to the nearest pitch. I hear the pitch translated as words (fixed do solfège is what I was taught, so that’s how my brain autotranslates).

How about for you? Do you hear the cents in between semitones as a true pitch? Do you round up or down in your brain as it translates to CDEFGABC or fixed do solfège? Or something different altogether?
