Interpretation
What is interpretation?
Interpreting is not about translating words literally; quite the contrary, it involves reproducing a speech in another language, retaining all its semantic, emotional and aesthetic content, and using different means of expression. In other words, the interpreter must first understand the message perfectly in order to separate it from the words that make it up, before reproducing it in another language with all its nuances. It involves a constant dialogue between different mentalities and cultural universes.
My interpretation services
-
Simultaneous interpretation
The interpreters sit in a booth in front of a microphone, listening to a speech in language X through their headphones. At the same time, they convey the message to the listener in language Y.
In other words, simultaneous interpreting is an intensive process of information processing. During a six-hour meeting, an interpreter will 'process' the equivalent of around 65 pages.
-
Consecutive interpretation
Seated at the conference table, the interpreters listen to the speaker's speech in language X, take notes and then immediately reproduce it consecutively in language Y without omitting anything, as if it were their own speech.
While simultaneous interpreting is required for multilingual meetings with a large number of participants, consecutive interpreting is better suited to smaller, technical or confidential meetings, as well as public events such as banquets or official visits.
