The Fundamentals of Simultaneous Interpretation for Events

On-site simultaneous interpretation occurs at the event’s physical location, where interpreters are present to convey the speaker’s spoken content from one language to another and vice versa. This requires the use of a soundproof booth, allowing interpreters not only to hear the speaker’s words clearly but also to observe their delivery.

The Saying “Two Heads are Better Than One” Certainly Applies to Simultaneous Interpretation

Professional interpreters are paired based on subject matter expertise and experience and work together to seamlessly take turns interpreting what the speakers are saying. This is especially important in simultaneous interpretation, which demands a great deal of concentration and effort. Most professional interpreters can only work effectively for 15 to 20 minutes before they need to hand off to a second interpreter and take a break before continuing. Working in pairs ensures that the interpretation remains accurate and effective, and allows interpreters to take the necessary breaks to maintain their performance.

Tips for a Successful Multilingual Event

Excellent Service is Key to Achieving Outstanding Results!

One of the greatest benefits of partnering with a professional interpretation company like TE is having a seasoned Project Manager leading the way. Your dedicated Project Manager understands the project requirements from start to finish and meticulously handles every detail to ensure your event runs smoothly. They act as the main liaison between your organization and the interpretation team, providing clear communication throughout the entire process.

Don’t Forget Support Materials

When planning your event, it’s natural to focus primarily on the content each speaker will deliver. However, it’s crucial to consider support materials early on as well. This involves identifying the type of ancillary visuals and reference materials that each speaker will use, such as workbooks, pamphlets, brochures, or handouts. In addition, event materials may require translation from the floor language to the participant’s native language. This is where a full-service language agency like TE can provide translation services and streamline the process. Supplying these reference materials to the interpreters as early as possible allows for effective preparation, leading to higher-quality interpretation. This is just one more way to ensure an optimal event experience for your audience.

Event Logistics Require Expert Planning

It’s important to keep in mind that the method of interpretation you choose will have an impact on your event’s logistics. For instance, if you opt for on-site interpretation, you’ll need to make sure you have enough space to set up interpretation booths.
Furthermore, if you’re planning an on-site event that requires full booths and interpretation in multiple languages, you’ll need to provide access to a loading dock for a large semi-truck. Fortunately, TE Event Interpretation Services owns its own equipment and trucks on both coasts of the US, which means we can quickly mobilize and be at your venue as soon as the next day. This has proven to be a lifesaver for several last-minute events.
