How did 'memes' get their name?
IT'S FROM ANCIENT GREEK OMG CAN'T BELIEVE MY KNOWLEDGE IS USEFUL *coughs* The term was first used by Dawkins to signify what he tried to explain as the 'cultural gene' something that self-replicated equal but different (look at me trying to explain things sleepy). It comes from the ancient greek μιμεῖσθαι, to imitate. That word is also root for other English words like mimic and mime. |
