I always wonder how you say meme...
My bro says it like mee mee.
But I say meem.

I pronounce it "meem".

Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.

I was previously under the impression that "meem" was the accepted norm. It is, at the very least, phonetically correct.

I hope I'm not the only one who's pronouncing it the way I am.

I do, never thought about it. That way of pronouncing it has a nice ring to it.

Boy, I'm glad I don't know some of you IRL. Those weird pronounciations would drive me CRAZY!

EDIT: And for the record, Dictionary.com is on my side, complete with their recorded pronounciation guides.

I also pronounce it mehm.
Although, according to merriam-webster, it's pronounced meem.

Oh.
Well, it's nice to know that other people pronounce(d) it "mehm" as well.

Hahaha, it's DEFINITELY meem. I'm surprised there's any debate about this.

Name one other word that ends with 'eme' and I'll concede that there is no debate.

Edit: I came up with crème, which is pronounced crehm.
