How interpreting works
The interpreting approach is always individually tailored to the specific situation and requirements. Sometimes, interpreting equipment is needed, while in other cases, the interpreter’s presence alone is sufficient for either simultaneous or consecutive interpreting. Here’s a brief overview of the different types of interpreting.
Consecutive interpreting
In consecutive interpreting, speech is interpreted in smaller sections, often a few sentences. This type of interpreting is sequential, as the interpreter translates immediately after the speaker delivers a segment of speech. Consecutive interpreting is often used in business meetings and is commonly applied in lectures, conferences and state visits—known in these cases as "high-level consecutive interpreting."
Escort interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting is primarily used for conferences, lectures, live TV broadcasts and other events with larger audiences or multiple target languages. It is usually performed in specialised interpreting booths, where a pair of interpreters work in shifts of 20 to 30 minutes. For very small groups or when a booth is unavailable, "whisper interpreting" (chuchotage) can be arranged, where the interpreter sits next to the participant or in the middle of the group, interpreting quietly or whispering directly into the participant’s ear.
Certified court interpreting
Court interpreting, also known as certified interpreting, requires the presence of a court interpreter who holds a special authorisation and is registered with the regional court. This type of interpreting is mainly used in communication with government authorities, during marriage ceremonies, witness testimonies, exams and in other legal situations.
