House of Translation - Understanding Simultaneous Interpretation www.houseoftranslation.ae
Simultaneous interpretation is a highly specialized area of translations, which requires accurate and complete translation, orally and at the same rate of speech as the speaker, with only a few seconds of lag time.
Simultaneous interpreters must have, not only complete mastery of the languages, but also of their cultures. In addition, they must have technical knowledge of the subject to be discussed, as well as the required simultaneous interpretation training, skill, and experience.
However, even the best simultaneous interpreters cannot do a proper job unless they have appropriate equipment. Therefore, simultaneous interpretation must be approached as a coherent whole.
This means that interpreters and interpretation equipment must be selected and designed to work together for the specific interpretation project.
