Interpreting Services — Defined

Interpreting services are the provision of spoken or signed language communication by a professional interpreter to convey a message from the language of the original speaker or writer, into the language of the listener. This task requires the language interpreter to preserve the register (or tone) of the message, as well as the meaning behind that message. Interpreting is an audible form of translation. For example:

Conference interpreting services see a speaker’s message being simultaneously interpreted into another language or sign language.

Medical interpreting services might involve Limited English-proficient patients visiting hospitals in the USA. In this case, a medical interpreter can relay the patient’s needs to the doctor and the doctor’s diagnosis to the patient.

Sight interpreting services might be useful for an English person who doesn’t understand the content of an Italian document. To ensure proper comprehension, an interpreter will translate and read the document aloud in English so that the person understands its content.

Interpreting services can be offered in person, over the phone, or on a video chat to relay the message. As long as the interpreter can hear the message, has a solid understanding of the subject matter, and is fluent in both the source and target languages, a clear and accurate interpretation ensues.

Phone Interpreting Services

Imagine these scenarios:

You’re in the middle of a busy shift in the ward. It’s late at night, and suddenly, a patient bursts in, surrounded by shouting family members, none of whom speak English.

You are the head council of an international case, and you’ve found a key witness that your client swears will win the case… but you can’t understand what she says.

You are lost in a foreign country, and standard computer translations are not helping you communicate with the people helping you with directions.

What do you do? You never know when a situation will arise where interpretation services are needed immediately. Phone interpreting services, best conducted with consecutive interpreting, offer ease of communication between parties who do not speak or understand one another. Phone interpreting services can be conducted for two or more parties in the same room or in remote locations. It simply requires that one party secure a professional interpreter on a call, then add additional parties on the line or place the phone on speaker so that everyone in the room may be involved in the conversation.

Simultaneous Interpreting

The interpreter renders a message into the target-language as the speaker delivers the message, with no pauses in between.

Consecutive Interpreting

The speaker delivers a message, pausing every few sentences to allow the interpreter to repeat the message into the target-language.

Sight Translation

The interpreter provides an oral rendition of written text into a language different than the original text.

Whispered

The interpreter sits next to the listener and conducts simultaneous interpreting in a lowered voice, to not distract or interrupt the speaker.

Relay

Involving multiple interpreters, one interpreter conveys the original message into a common language. Another interpreter renders the message from the common language into the target language.

Liaison

The interpreter acts as a mediator between two parties, interpreting every sentence spoken by both parties during the mediation.

Interpretation Services vs. Translation Services

This is how interpreting services differ from translation services:

Interpreting Service	Translation Service
An interpreter works with spoken language.	A translator works with written language.
Interpreters must be quick to provide accurate interpretation services.	A translator has time to review and make changes to assure accuracy.
An interpreter must be able to speak back and forth in both languages, but not necessarily write well in either.	A translator must be able to write well in both languages, but is not always bilingual.

No matter which service, each linguist must have a strong understanding of the subject matter in order to create the most accurate interpretation or translation. If you want 100% accurate translation or interpretation services, access one of our 10,000 professional, specialized linguists.
