Conference Interpreters UK - CIUK

edit Description

This is standard practice at international meetings these days. The interpreter sits in a booth, listening to the speech through headphones, and translates simultaneously. Conference delegates wear headsets to listen in to the language of their choice. Interpreters normally work in a team of two or more per booth, depending on the number of active and passive languages. Here again the consultant interpreter will give expert guidance.

Sometimes interpreting is confused with translation which involves a written text. Some members of Conference Interpreters UK are also qualified translators although this is a very different skill. Both professions, however, require an advanced level of education, general knowledge and exceptional language skills. Conference interpreters need to prepare meetings carefully and should be provided with all the background documents available for this purpose.
