The earliest known reference to the meme was in December 2009 when user E.W. Doom shared an Urban Dictionary post on the French word for number 19, dix-neuf. According to some netizens, the word sounds like deez n*tz in English, which is a slang term for t*sticles.
The term went viral back in March 2016 when Youtuber @kmlkmljkl shared a video showing a Google Translate search for saying 19 in French. The viral clip has amassed over 37,000 views.
