Basic Principles of Interpretation

Read this article in spanish

Interpretation, unlike the written nature of translation, involves the oral transmission of a message from one language to another. It is a cornerstone of global communication, enabling real-time connections between people from different cultures and languages.

In recent decades, with the rise of international business and growing immigrant populations, interpretation has become increasingly essential and plays a key role in settings ranging from business meetings to international conferences, medical situations, and social events.

As a professional field, interpretation includes several modalities, each tailored to specific needs:

  • Escort Interpretation: The interpreter accompanies the client, facilitating communication in informal or small-scale settings. This type of interpretation is ideal for guided tours, business meetings, and social events.
  • On-site Simultaneous Interpretation: Common at conferences and large events, where the interpreter interprets the speaker in real time. This requires soundproof booths and specialized technical equipment.
  • Remote Simultaneous Interpretation: Allows for live interpretation through digital platforms, reducing costs and complexities related to  logistics without sacrificing quality. It offers a flexible and efficient solution.
  • Consecutive Interpretation: The interpretation happens after the speaker has finished a sentence or a section. This can be done either in person or remotely.

Regardless of the modality, having a skilled interpreter can make a significant difference. A professional interpreter’s experience and expertise ensure accurate and reliable service.
