He briefs newly-arrived ambassadors-designate on procedures regarding the presentation of credentials and related matters. He is consulted by members of the diplomatic corps on questions regarding precedence, correct procedure, formalities at official ceremonies, courtesies, seating arrangements at dinner, dress and the like. He is the arbiter of ceremonial usage and local custom. His decisions on unofficial matters are not binding but they are generally followed.  1, record 2, English, - Chief%20of%20Protocol

Le DJ était accompagné d'un MC - maître de cérémonie - qui, aux débuts du hip-hop, était celui qui mettait de l'ambiance lors des «block parties», en animant au micro les soirées [...] Ils [les DJs] libéraient un espace sonore où le MC en profitait pour étoffer ses interventions. Au départ de simple onomatopées, puis rapidement des textes rimés. Le MC n'était que le «lieutenant» du DJ, son faire-valoir. Avec les années, les rôles se sont inversés. Le DJ est passé derrière, jusqu'à disparaître parfois.  2, record 4, French, - MC
