Frequently asked questions
The cognitive load is very high, and having two interpreters who take turns ensures a high-quality service, with adequate rest periods.
Simultaneous and consecutive interpreting are suitable for different types of communication. Simultaneous interpreting requires the use of equipment (booths or bidule) but ensures a rapid and immediate translation, without prolonging the duration of the meeting or event. Consecutive interpreting does not require any special technical equipment, apart from a microphone, but it extends – or even doubles – the duration of the event, as the interpreter translates after the speaker has spoken for varying lengths of time.
Absolutely. I can put together teams of trusted and close-knit colleagues, coordinating multiple language combinations.
Definitely, particularly when starting a new collaboration or planning an important event, it can be very beneficial to ensure the service runs smoothly.
It is possible to manage an event taking place across multiple locations, even in different countries, using an online platform equipped with the relevant functionality. This allows participants to listen to the simultaneous interpretation directly online in one or more languages via their computer or mobile phone, while the interpreters work in virtual booths.
To receive a quote, simply send an email or a WhatsApp message stating the date, times, venue, type of meeting or event, topic and the languages required. I’ll be happy to get back to you within 24 hours.
The number of participants is not that important when making this choice. Both large and small events can be handled equally well using either method. The key factor is how tight the time constraints are. Simultaneous interpreting does not extend the duration of the event, whereas consecutive interpreting does.
