Abstract
The article looks at Romanic lexical units in the discourse of internet memes. The research is new and relevant because there is a strong need to analyse foreign words in semiotically hybrid discourses, in particular, in mini format discourse such as internet memes. Besides, the discursive features of internet memes are not fully examined. The research shows that Romanic lexical units have a rich stylistic potential, special pragmatic functions and can generate a humorous effect.
