well as an educated musician i must say, of course! rhythm, speed and note selection are a huge part of a melody of course! add in some legato and slurs and gliding to certain notes and you get even closer. also don’t forget silence (rests) in between, those are the ones that make your melody shine and sound more natural!!  or learn an instrument :-)
