Interpreting is the process of converting spoken language from one language to another in real-time to facilitate communication between people who speak different languages.
Interpreting involves translating spoken words or sign language on the spot, ensuring that the meaning and intent are accurately conveyed between the parties involved.
There are several modes of interpreting, including:
- Simultaneous interpreting: The interpreter translates the spoken language in real-time while the speaker is talking. This is commonly used in conferences and large meetings.
- Consecutive interpreting: The interpreter waits for the speaker to pause before translating their speech. This is often used in smaller meetings and one-on-one conversations.
- Sign language Interpreting: Converts spoken language into sign language for the deaf and hard of hearing.
Interpreting is crucial in various settings such as international conferences, medical appointments, legal proceedings and business meetings to ensure clear and effective communication across language barriers.
