A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

The thing that got me when finally speaking to natives was how fast natural speaking is. You think you can understand things fine but that's because the teachers and apps are speaking clearly and slowly and waiting for you to parse each sentence. Natural conversation isn't like that.
I'm sorry for foreigners, I never learned how to properly pronounciate my owl language. It's OK not to understand me, other natives struggle too XD
Is 'my owl language' the language you're learning using Duolingo? Or is it a typo and you meant 'my own language'? It's interesting because normally I'd assume the latter, but in the context of this thread, the former makes some weird sense.
Obviously they were raised by owls and speak an owl language.
Oooh!
hooo*
