i don't understand the significance of character_set_connection

I know that the manual says its the "character set the server translates a statement to after receiving it" but i dont understand what that really means.

What does it mean to translate the statement and why does mysql do it? I've tried commenting out the line in my code and switching it from "ujis" to "utf8" and all three scenarios i don't notice any difference in how my website looks or operates.

My character_set_client is set to "utf8" and my database columns are all either latin1 or ujis.
