What is Simultaneous Interpretation?
Simultaneous Interpretation allows a meeting or conference to be conducted in two or more languages without delays. In Simultaneous Interpretation, the speaker’s words are interpreted at the same time he or she is speaking. Delegates listen to the language of their choice via headsets connected to multichannel wireless receivers. In Simultaneous Interpretation, interpreters work in teams of at least two. Due to the high level of concentration necessary to interpret at the same time as the speaker, the interpreters take turns interpreting for about 10-20 minutes at a time. While one interpreter is interpreting, the other is carefully listening to the proceedings, ready to assist his or her partner whenever necessary.
Simultaneous Interpretation is often used for international business meetings, conferences, media broadcasts and bilingual and multilingual events, and it usually requires specialized equipment (headsets, interpretation booths, etc.) and engineers for installation and monitoring. GaidoTranslations works closely with its clients to manage the logistics of interpretation equipment including placement and installation of the equipment, equipment security and technical monitoring during the conference.
Advantages of Simultaneous Interpretation:
It allows for the most efficient use of time. The meeting schedule is not affected since no additional time is required for the interpretation.
Interpretation of speeches is delivered without interruption, thus retaining the effectiveness and flow of the speaker’s presentation.
It is an essential platform when multiple languages are being spoken at the same meeting.
It is the most advanced interpretation method available and it is impressive to foreign delegates.
What is Consecutive Interpretation?
In Consecutive Interpretation, the interpreter serves as an intermediary translating the conversation between two speakers. Each speaker pauses after every two or three sentences to allow time for the interpreter to render the speaker’s remarks into the other language.
Consecutive Interpretation is commonly used for court hearings, depositions, business meetings and negotiations, medical appointments, tours, informal meetings, training sessions, lectures and social occasions.
Advantages of Consecutive Interpretation:
It is an ideal platform for involved discussions, meetings and negotiations. Through Consecutive Interpretation, participants are given an opportunity to reflect on the conversation as it is happening.
It is excellent for small groups when only two languages are involved in the communicating process.
It is cost-efficient. Consecutive Interpretation requires fewer interpreters and no equipment or technical personnel are needed.
