Conversation between Obama vs Japanese PM Yoshiro Mori

English is difficult language------for some!

The true story from the Japanese embassy in US!!!

 A few years ago,Prime Minister Mori  was given some Basic English conversation training before he visits Washington and meets president of USA Barack Obama.

 The coach told Mori Prime Minister, when you shake hand with President Obama, please say “How are you’. Then Mr. Obama should say,” I am fine , and you?” Now, you should say “me too”. Afterwards we, translators, will do the work for you. It looks quite straightforward, but the truth is…

When Mori met Obama , He by mistake said “ who are you”(instead of “How are You?”)

Mr. Obama was a bit shocked but still managed to react with humor: “ well , I’m Michelle’s husband,ha-ha…”

Then Mori replied “ me too, ha-ha….”

Then there was a long silence in the meeting room.
