CONSECUTIVE AND SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING

Translation is written,

interpreting is oral.

>
The consecutive interpreters
wait until the end of the sentence or short intervention before starting
their oral translation.
The more sentences they have to translate, the less accurate
the translation will be.



* Consecutive interpreting is suited to private meetings and negotiations.
 

> The simultaneous interpreters

are a rare commodity. Their art consists in translating orally
what the ear has heard a few seconds previously,
while memorising what they are going to translate
a few seconds later, and so forth.
They need such concentration that their assistance
hardly exceeds half an hour's time.

* Simultaneous interpreting is suited to conferences and statements.
