English is a difficult language ...... for some !

A few days ago, Prime Minister Mori was given some Basic English conversation training before he visits Washinton and meets president Barack Obama...

The instructor told Mori Prime Minister, when you shake hand with President Obama, please say 'how r u'. Then Mr. Obama should say, 'I am fine, and you ?' Now, you should say 'me too'. Afterwards we, traslators, will do the work for you.'

When Mori met Obama,
he mistakenly said 'who r u?'(instead of 'Hor r u ?')

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.

    • It is so funny. As I know, Prime Minister of Canada is Stephen Harper. If I met Mr. Morri, I would like to ask him "Who r u?".
      • [former] Prime Minister of Japan Yoshirō Mori, served as PM of J from April 2000 to April 2001. He has no chance to meet President Obama in his term as prime minister. The original version was about PM Mori and President Clinton.
        Before the recent G8 summit in Okinawa, Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori was coached in a bit of English. Upon meeting Clinton, he was to say "How are you?" The response was supposed to be "I'm fine, thank you. And you?" Mori was to answer, "Me too."

        When they actually met, Mori made a small <NOBR>slip-up</NOBR> and said, "Who are you?"

        Clinton replied, "I'm Hillary's husband." To which Mori replied, "Me too."
