President Jimmy Carter once told a joke during a speech in Japan that caused the audience to burst into laughter. Impressed, he asked how the interpreter got such a laugh. The interpreter admitted to saying, "President Carter told a funny story. Everyone must laugh." https://t.co/sk4k1YVoi9

President Jimmy Carter and his interpreter definitely knew how to get a laugh out of the audience! That's some clever translation work right there. Thanks for sharing this amusing anecdote, it just goes to show that sometimes comedy transcends language barriers with a little help from interpreters!
