Simultaneous translation

A specialised form of interpreting, where trained specialist interpreters translate spoken language from one language to another in real time. Using special equipment such as soundproof booths, headphones and a microphone, the interpreters deliver the message at the same time as the speaker delivers it, ensuring seamless communication. Typically, the speaker’s speech and the interpreter’s interpretation are separated by just 3 seconds. This service is commonly used at international conferences, meetings and events. In most cases, the translation is done by two interpreters so that there are no interruptions or long pauses.
