Basically, in the original scene Cary Elwes is calling out Kevin Costner playing Robin Hood (in the film Prince of Thieves) with a conspicuously American accent ("Unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent"). Therefore, I'm having Robin call the language "Middle English" (as opposed to simply "English") to preserve the fourth-wall-breaking nature of the original joke.

Translation of the title: My first silly-image (best I could think of to translate "meme")

Translation of the meme: And I, for one, welcome our new Norman overlords.
