Top answer

An exchange rate is what a person will pay for a foreign currency in their home currency. When exporting or importing goods (not just exchanging currency), the exchange rate will be higher or lower simply because of the effects of differential inflation or deflation between the countries. What is "passed-through" is the additional cost of importing/exporting to a country with high inflation compared to a country with no inflation.

regime-dependent = Dependent on a certain class of government. "Regime" is a negative term for a type of government with a strong authority figure, such as a king or dictator. In these states, economic decisions are governed by ideology rather than economic reality. The countries with highest inflation rates are typically governed by autocratic strong men (dictators, kings) or plutocracies.
