INTERPRETING SERVICES
When is it necessary?
- Overseas partners are going to visit you for negotiations
- You are giving a presentation of your company for overseas investors

What is interpretation?
- Interpretation is verbal conveyance of the meaning of an oral statement in one (source) language by linguistic means of another (target) language, taking into consideration all lexical, grammatical and stylistic peculiarities. Interpretation can be divided into consecutive (interpretation after the statement is finished) and simultaneous (interpretation simultaneously with the statement). Unseen translation is also a type of oral interpretation.
What is the difference between written translation and interpretation?
- The main task of interpretation is to communicate the meaning of the statement, and the stylistic and lexical peculiarities are only observed as far as possible,
- Strict timeframe for decision-making
- No possibility to review the text to be translated (except for unseen translation)
- Interpreter cannot check the translation of unknown words in the dictionaries or online
- Interpreter has no time to search for the best translation
- Due to a strict time frame, interpreter may skip the unimportant details during translation
Main types of interpretation
Generally, interpretation is divided into two large groups:
- consecutive interpretation (interpretation during special pauses after the statement was finished)
- simultaneous interpretation (interpretation during the speech with a minimum delay and without special pauses)
