3 modes of interpretation
3 modes of interpretation
Simultaneous Interpretation
Simultaneous Interpretation
Simultaneous interpretation is when an interpreter interprets the message from the source language to the target language in real-time. The interpreter has to interpret what the speaker says at the same time as the speaker is saying it. Only a small pause is allowed to process speech.
Unlike in consecutive interpreting, this way the natural flow of the speaker is not disturbed and allows for a fairly smooth output for the listeners.
Simultaneous interpreting is used at the United Nations, Presidential speeches, courtrooms, business or board meetings, large scale conferences, lectures and presentations.
This type of interpreting usually requires simultaneous interpretation equipment.

Consecutive Interpretation
Consecutive Interpretation
Consecutive interpreting is the most popular type of interpretation work. The interpreter listen to what the speaker is saying, the interpreter converts the words into the target language after the speaker delivers one or two sentences. The speaker pauses and waits for the interpreter to convey the message before continuing with their speech.
The interpreter may facilitate communication by offering notes while interpreting, especially when working with long sentences.
The primary advantage is clarity. Since, only one party speaks at a time, all parties can more easily remain on the same page.
Consecutive interpreting works best for small groups or one-on-one conversations like Medical examination room, IME's (Independent Medical Examinations), Mediations, Depositions/EUOs.

Sight Translation
Sight Translation
Sight translation transforms a written message into a spoken message. It involves reading a text silently in the source language, and then speaking it in the target language to the English Limited Proficiency (LEP).
A qualified interpreter should also be skilled at sight translation, which allows them to provide an understanding of the content of a source-language text in the target language.
Written materials, such as forms, applications, deposition transcripts, agreements, prescription and notices are among the documents that are sight translated the most in these situations.
