Different Kinds of Interpretation Services You Need to Know about
Why Interpretation Services? Countries world-across perform specialised services. Attainment of these several governmental, legal, healthcare, tourism, industrial, etc., services involves crossing of geographical boundaries. Language barrier is a common hindrance people face in the procurement of global services. To overcome this language barrier, many companies offer interpretation services. Professional interpreters make commercial, political, industrial, legal and personal communication and operations easier and smoother for non-native users. Here’s the wide range of interpreting services in the market you can choose from depending on your needs:
1. Simultaneous interpreting: It involves instant interpretation and translation of the speaker’s words or statements. The service demands qualified and fluent interpreters as it requires processing and memorising words in different languages simultaneously. This service is most often employed in conferences, group meetings, larger events, and training sessions where time is of utmost importance.
2. Consecutive interpreting: In case of small conferences, group discussions and court proceedings, consecutive interpreting services are hired. It involves translation in breaks, such as after a paragraph or every few lines. This is therefore a back and forth style of interpreting. One must carefully memorise whatever was said at length, without a loss of any detail.
3. In-person interpreting: The interpreter sits alongside the client and other party. She/he carefully observes the body language and facial expressions while simultaneously translating the spoken word. This type is the best as it takes into account all verbal and latent details.
4. Telephone interpretation: The interpreter sits alongside the client and other party. S/he carefully observes the body language and facial expressions while simultaneously translating the spoken word. This type is the best as it takes into account all verbal and latent details. However, telephone interpretations do not necessarily have to be last minute. In case they are scheduled beforehand, they are referred to as Over-the-Phone Interpretation or as Scheduled Telephone Interpretation. The interpreter translates via phone and cannot see either of the two parties.
5. Whisper interpreting: In quieter places, such as during a business meeting, or when you are part of an audience in an event, whisper interpreting is used so that other people are not affected by the sounds. As the name suggests, the interpreter translates the information and speaks in the client’s ear.
6. Conference interpreting: A form of simultaneous interpreting, the conference interpreting usually takes place in settings where people from diverse language backgrounds are present and who require translation in different languages. In this case, clients are provided with headphones and microphones and can switch to any language medium of preference. Interpreters sit somewhere else and translate using their equipment.
7. Video remote interpreting: Like telephonic interpretation, VRI employs technology to provide urgent on-the-go translation services. It is cost effective and eliminates the need for the physical presence of the interpreter. The only must-have is a stable internet connection.
8. Escort/Travel interpreters: This requires the interpreter to travel along the client, be it a holiday or a business meeting. They act as the client’s assistant and help them figure out everything, whether it is closing a deal, ordering food, navigating directions, etc.
9. Relay interpreting: The interpreter is supposed to carefully listen to a source language speaker and translate this to a language common to other interpreters who, in turn, translate this in specific languages to their clients. This is time-consuming but is necessitated in situations where interpreters with good knowledge of a certain language combination cannot be found, and the audience/clients are in huge numbers. While these nine types seem specific and to be designed for certain situations, they can be hired in combinations. A professional, reliable interpreter company will consider your purpose, location, setting, etc. to guide you with the best suitable interpretation solution.
