Simultaneous interpretation is a rigorous process that involves interpreting into the target language at the same time the source language is spoken. Our skilled interpretation professionals possess relevant training in the art of simultaneous interpretation and are capable of translating between the source and target audience, while preserving the intonation, style and inflection of the speaker.
Simultaneous interpretation also involves the utilization of equipment such as soundproof booths, microphones, transmitters, receivers and headphones so that the process is transparent. Simultaneous interpretation usually requires the engagement of two or more interpreters per language.
LinguaLinx partners with several vendors that provide the necessary equipment for simultaneous interpretation assignments. The type and cost of equipment depends on several factors such as the number of participants requiring interpretation, the location of the event, the physical layout of the venue, the duration of the event, the number of languages being interpreted, and whether there will be a Q & A session afterwards.
