Summary edit

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description A "mem" is a memory aid used to be featured on the language-learning platform Memrise. This picture exemplifies a mem - the target word is the English "seethe," which is pronounced with one's corners of the mouth drawn back, like what one would do when being angry, thus matching the meaning of the word.
