IMPROVED: That whole first answer is ridiculous regardless of truth. This is a french forum, and your question deserved to be answered as such.

Your answer is of you are an english speaker, try to say mem and mam at the same time. You should come very close to the french pronunciation. I believe what you are trying to say with the second word is ma mere (my mother).

"meme" - It's not just French. It's Acadian/Acadien French and we pronounce it meh-MAY. Acadian French, and it's extended offshoot, "Cajun", which itself is a mispronunciation and mispelling of the word Acadien, are both very old dialects of French.

SIDE NOTE: Some English speaking person must have heard a Cajun person describe himself as "Acadien", which he would have heard as Cah-JEN, then the English speaker wrote down the word phonetically as Cah-jun. But when another English speaker sees the word Cajun, they put their emphasis rules and vowel sounds in there and you get....CAY jun.

if you are referring to the English word "Same" then the French translation for that is "même".

That is the correct spelling of the word "meme" (a cultural idea or concept).
