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.

For those who dont understand the difference, a lot of english speaking people say it as if you had the cra part from lucrative and then an s sound and after that the word ant. So it sounds like this cra-s-ant(not totally but its hard to describe in a way that someone without ipa knowledge would understand). While the actual french pronounciation is like(once again quite hard to describe) kwah-sah(the sah is kinda like when you pronounce balsa) and the important part is that theres a release of air from the nostrils when pronouncing the sah part, almost like if the a and an n merged. This is often written with a tilda(~) written on top of the vowel(ã in this case) which literally comes from and n that was shoved on top of the preceeding vowel.
