Before the Iranian revolution, the then US president, Jimmy Carter, visited Iran. He had a formal meeting with the king of Iran. King palevi's English was very good, and there was no need for translation.
But the king spoke English with a strong accent, which led to misunderstanding on a major issue. But interestingly, Carter, as a southerner, also had an accent, so misunderstanding became a misunderstanding Double. That's why in their conversation, Carter mentioned an African organization and asked the king to make a comprehensive assessment of it.
The king didn't think highly of the organization because he found that there were many internal problems in the organization, so he used it. He put the stress on the second syllable. To Carter, the word sounded like xxximportantxxx, because Carter thought the organization was a very important organization.
He was glad that their opinions should be xxxconsistentxxx and xxxyes, I agree with the organization It's very important, xxxhe repeated to the king.

伊朗革命前,当时的美国总统吉米·卡特访问了伊朗,他与伊朗国王进行了一次正式的会谈,帕列维国王的英语非常好,不需要翻译,但是国王讲英语的口音很重,导致在一个重大问题上产生误解,但有趣的是,卡特,作为一个南方人,他也有口音,所以误会变成了双重的。这就是为什么在他们的谈话中,卡特提到了某个非洲组织,并要求国王对其进行全面评估。国王对这个组织的评价并不高,因为他发现这个组织有许多内部问题,所以他使用了他把重音放在第二个音节上,对卡特来说这个词听起来像“重要”,因为卡特自己认为这个组织是一个非常重要的组织,他很高兴他们的意见应该“一致”,“是的,我同意组织确实非常重要,”他对国王重复道。
