Memes to moimois is freaking funny (me = moi in French)
Yes, we do that in German, too. Me=mich -> meme=Michmich.
According to someone from rance they do the moimoi-thing, too.
What do the Germans and/or French call selfies?
Don't know about the French, but in German you can't go wrong with Selbsties.
Selbstchen, surely. Which also has the dubious honour of having six consonants in a row. Or Selbstli if you're fancy?
That sounds swiss though.
Hence fancy ;)
Nein, einfach nein.
In French, usually selfies. The Québéc French Language Office (OQLF) proposes "égoportrait" but I've only ever seen that used very rarely in more formal written contexts.
