Zgharit, also called zaghrouta, is a long, high-pitched ululation traditionally performed by women at weddings and celebrations across North Africa and the Middle East, where it signals joy and welcomes guests. This chicken version keeps that celebratory rhythm but swaps the human voice for frantic clucking, turning a proud cultural sound into a deliberately silly parody. Shared online as a Moroccan meme, it survives because the joke needs no translation: listeners hear the festive trill, recognise the hen, and laugh at the clash, joining a wider set of chicken meme sounds shared for comic reactions.
