INTERPRETATION
The oral translation of a spoken message from one language into another.There are different types of interpreting services:
- Liaison Interpreting
- Consecutive Interpreting
- Simultaneous Interpreting
- Sworn Interpreting
Liaison Interpreting
The interpreter acts as a “liaison” between one or more people by translating each participant’s message into the other language at short intervals of one or more sentences.This type of interpreting is used for business meetings, talks, trade shows, tours, etc.
Consecutive Translation
The interpreter uses a series of special techniques to note down what the speaker is saying, and then conveys the message to a large audience.This type of interpreting is used for conferences, press conferences, seminars, etc.
Simultaneous Interpreting
Working inside a soundproof booth, the interpreter listens to the speaker through a set of headphones and conveys the message in real time to the members of the audience through individual wireless headsets.This type of interpreting is used for congresses, conferences, television broadcasts, etc.
