    R. Dawkins and the word "meme"

    When I was looking up the word meme, I was surprised to find out Dawkins contribution:

    Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source
    meme /mim/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[meem] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
    –noun a cultural item that is transmitted by repetition in a manner analogous to the biological transmission of genes.

    [Origin: 1976; < Gk mīmeǐsthai to imitate, copy; coined by R. Dawkins, Brit. biologist]
