Ví dụ
“A date which will live in infamy.” The immense (to lớn) weight of these words from President Franklin Roosevelt as he addressed the nation on Dec. 8, 1941, a day after the Japanese launched a surprise attack against the U.S. at Pearl Harbor continues to haunt (ám ảnh) Americans.

“December 7, 1941 — a date which will live in infamy — the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan,” U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt addressed the joint session of Congress the following day. Half an hour after the Commander-in-Chief (Tổng tư lệnh) concluded (kết luận) his speech, the U.S. Congress voted to declare war on Japan.

The next day, Congress would declare war with Japan, leading the U.S. into World War II. During an address to a joint session (buổi họp) of Congress, then-President Franklin Roosevelt famously called Dec. 7, 1941 “a date which will live in infamy.”

In a speech to Congress the following day, President Franklin D. Roosevelt called the day of the attack "a date which will live in infamy." Shortly thereafter, Congress passed a declaration of war against Japan, casting the United States into World War II.
