Consecutive Interpretation Services in Dubai & other Emirates

Consecutive Interpretation Services...

In consecutive interpretation, the interpreter speaks in the target language the same discourse after the source-language speaker has stopped speaking. This type of interpretation service is usually delivered for face to face scenarios such as meetings, court cases, interviews, small business meetings, etc. The participants are a minimum of two people and in some cases, they are more than two.

The source and target languages are also at a minimum of two languages but in many cases, the participants are of more than two languages. In consecutive interpretation, the number of participants is much less than that in a simultaneous interpretation event and no interpretation equipments and booths are required . This mode of interpretation services is used in liaisoning purposes.

The consecutive interpreter sits next to the person needing the translation.The consecutive Interpretation can also happen in the form of sign language interpretation or a remote interpretation between two parties or persons. We provide top-notch interpreters to make your international events & meetings successful.

Short & Long Consecutive Interpreting Services...

Consecutive interpretation is of 2 types viz. Short consecutive interpretation & long consecutive interpretation. In short consecutive interpretations, the speaker speaks for a short while and stops. The interpreter relies on his/her memory of what has been spoken by the speaker and interprets it. Whereas, in a long interpretation, the interpreter takes notes and interprets after the speaker completes a substantial part of his speech. Long Consecutive interpretation is preferred to short interpretation as the interpreter has the whole meaning of the speech before he/she interprets. This makes the interpretation more meaningful & accurate.

The speaker and the interpreter attempt to reach a consensus regarding the length of segments prior to the commencement of the interpretation. Depending upon the complexity of the subject in the discussion it is decided whether to follow a short interpretation or a long interpretation. Also, in many cases, the interpreter is provided with a document in the source language before the interpretation starts. The interpreter renders the source document to the target language. This is known as sight translation in the field of consecutive interpretation and is widely followed in medical & judicial scenarios.

Nuances of Consecutive Interpretation…

The qualities desired of an interpreter are as follows:

a- Highly proficient in 2 languages.
b- Active listening skills.
c- The power to analyze the speech of the speaker.
d- Excellent memory.
e- Ability to make useful notes.

The 3 main actions of an interpreter are as follows:

a- Listen actively and understand the speech of the speaker.
b- Analyze the speech of the speaker and take structured notes.
c- Reproduce perfectly the speech of the speaker in the language of the audience and make the communication effective.

The listening of an interpreter is different from listeners in a common scenario. This is because of the fact that the interpreter listens to a speech not to react or join in a conversation but to remember and reproduce the same speech in another language.

Analyzing and taking useful structured notes is based upon prioritizing information and categorizing them as primary information, secondary information & tertiary information.

While reproducing the speech of the speaker in the target language an interpreter must make it an engaging conversation, manage his/her stress, and use the most appropriate tonality and voice control. Our highly professional interpreters are the key to business success in the international scenario. You can hire our interpreters as and when required.

When Do You Use Consecutive Interpreting?

Consecutive interpretation is not used for large seminars and conferences. It is used in one-on-one discussions and small meetings. Consecutive interpreting is used in different settings and industries. It is used to conduct both informal and formal discussions.

A few common scenarios where consecutive interpreting is used are as follows:

HR meetings attended by multilingual staff
Press Conferences & Personal interviews
International Business meetings
Multilingual Staff Evaluations
Conferences among teachers and parents speaking different languages
Meetings between Attorneys and Clients speaking different languages
Court depositions & Varied Judicial Hearings

Requirements of Consecutive Interpretation Service…

Consecutive interpretation does not require a set up of technical equipment like simultaneous interpretation. No headphones, audio consoles, microphones, & sound booths are required for consecutive interpretation. All that is needed is a pair of pens & notepads.

Instances when consecutive interpretation is not suitable...

Consecutive interpretation is not suitable for large conferences, live TV broadcasts, & large conventions. In large conferences & conventions, there are multilingual speakers and listeners, each one of them has to wait for the speech to be delivered in their language and consecutive interpretation becomes inconvenient in such scenarios. So, in such scenarios, simultaneous interpretation is preferred to consecutive interpretation as the speech needs to be reproduced and rendered to the multilingual audience in their own languages simultaneously.

Double & Triple Consecutive Interpretation

An interpreter is not available for many language combinations for example Chinese<> Greek, Russian<> Swahili, Spanish <> Korean, etc. In such circumstances, 2 different interpreters are highered for example in a Chinese<> Greek interpretation, a Chinese<>English interpreter & an English<>Greek interpreter. The first one interprets from Chinese to English and the second one interprets from English to Greek. In this way, the Chinese speaker communicated to the Greek speaker. Also, an intervening party in many cases the court records the statements in both the languages. This is known as Double Consecutive Interpretation. In the case of rare languages or rare dialects, even consecutive interpreters up to 3 in number are appointed to interpret one language to the other. For example Fulani<> Farsi, 3 interpreters may be appointed viz. Fulani<>Swahili, Swahili<>English, English<>Farsi. This is known as Triple Consecutive Interpretation. We provide Double & Triple consecutive interpretation services by highly experienced and professional interpreters in Dubai, Abu Dhabi & other Emirates.
