OUI, COMMENCONS AVEC LA LANGUE ET DES PETITES ROUES POUR LES PIEDS!!!
In this instance we speak American!! Check instance Oh wait.
I love waking up in the morning and seeing all the wackiness the rest of the world concocted.
Y’all are all have some amazing and funny cultures.
Sacré bleu! Mais non.
Just because the Americans are asleep doesn’t mean the Australians learnt to speak other languages!
Heck, I’m not sure we’ve even got the hang of English half the time.
Yea, naur.
At least y’all can say this sentence
Can confirm, Baltimore has this southern adjacent accent with a northern twang.
That is a MASSIVE tongue twister for northern maryalnd
Pro tip: learning French and German nets you up to 75% better English skills.
Unless you’re Irish. Then your English stays the same and your Irish fluency decreases.
I thought we were calling the thing you speak Strayan!

Memes to moimois is freaking funny (me = moi in French)
Yes, we do that in German, too. Me=mich -> meme=Michmich.
According to someone from rance they do the moimoi-thing, too.
What do the Germans and/or French call selfies?
Don’t know about the French, but in German you can’t go wrong with Selbsties.
I had never seen it in comments from Quebecois, don’t know if it’s used on Reddit (where the community is actually active) and it’s just too new… We already did literal translations of some things, like a post is a poteau (as in, a post that you plant in the ground to build a fence or to fix a mailbox to…), upvotes are positivotes… So why not moimois!
The use of moimoi is itself a meme.
Memeception
Moimoiception en français!
positivotes sounds much happier
But negativotes sounds much sadder
I really thought meme originated from the French meme, meaning self. I thought ppl used it like me_irl, moi meme. I’m realizing this is based on nothing and I might have totally made it up.
imo the actual etymology is weirder
it was invented by richard dawkins in the selfish gene in the 1970s
it’s used to describe an “idea-gene”; something that spreads and mutates not through biological means but through communication
like a mind-virus
hence why it sounds like a portmanteau of “memory” and “gene”
The more you learn 🤓!
“Même” by itself means “same”, “c’est la même chose” “it’s the same thing”, with moi (moi-même) it’s “myself”. “Self” by itself (feels weird to say that) would be translated as “soi”.
Me, my memes and I
Moi, mes moimois et moi
Ah, true, sorry!
أتفق معك كل الإتفاق
I’m supposed to be asleep?
Nice try, dweeb.
I wanna be asleep lol
Ja, lad os alle bande på dansk, svensk, norsk, og xhosa!
The few of us awake appreciate your antics.
Few, is over 11 million night workers.
moderatorerna sover, skicka mejmejs
I’m pretty sure our insomniacs still outnumber the Europeans (At least on Lemmy)
Edit: I continued scrolling and maybe not. Keep seeing these things I don’t understand. Well played.
I don’t understand, it’s 2am and my memes aren’t in german, what’s happening?
Look at the time, it’s already french pickiness o’clock!
The correct way to phrase this is “pour poster des moimois dans toutes les langues”.
Sorry, I had to, it’s a cultural thing.
Eh, last time I spoke french was some 15± years ago, of course I had to make some mistake.
Mais merci pour la correction, sinon on n’apprend rien.
I miserably failed at german in school. You did way better than I would have done in your language ;).
On dit “faire des poteaux”, pas “poster”!
Honte à moi :'(.
Ou sont les frêres et sœrs françaises? Aidéz nous s’il vous plâites!
