Simultaneous and Consecutive
INTERPRETATION
All of our interpreters are seasoned professionals, accredited by professional associations and/or US Department of State, with proven record of delivering top quality services. Depending on your needs, we would provide you with interpreters working in consecutive or simultaneous modes.
In CONSECUTIVE interpretation, the interpreter waits for the speaker to finish a sentence or a whole statement, and then renders the speaker's words into the target language. Consecutive interpretation is best suited for situations involving a small number of people, or where a personal touch is required, i.e. business meetings, press conferences, interviews, teleconferences, or any type of one-on-one exchange.
In SIMULTANEOUS interpretation, the participants wear headphones, and the interpreter renders the speaker's words into the target language virtually in real time. Owing to the tremendous level of concentration required to perform this type of interpretation, simultaneous interpreters always work in teams of two. The interpreters may provide simultaneous interpretation using portable equipment or stationary systems.
Because this mode of interpreting saves time, it is preferred for conferences and meetings in which a great deal of information has to be conveyed. The use of audio equipment also means that there is no limit to the number of people in the audience.
Please do not hesitate to call us or drop us a line and we shall be happy to advise you on the best solution for your particular project.
