What a simultaneous translation service is
Simultaneous translation is a service provided by professional interpreters who orally translate a message from one language to another in real-time. The speaker can continue speaking while the interpreter translates, and the audience listens to the translation through headphones.
Simultaneous translation services allow two interpreters to listen at 20-minute intervals to a message in the source language and simultaneously express it in the target language to the audience from an interpreting booth.
This modality allows for more streamlined presentations, as the speaker does not have to stop and wait for the message to be interpreted. This dynamic works well in conferences, talks, seminars, training, etc.
For example, imagine participating in the «Algo International Conference» and presenting your latest work. If you are using a service as described, your listeners will be able to listen to the presentation in its original language without needing to translate it first.
How a simultaneous translation service work
It works as follows; the speaker speaks into the microphone, and the interpreters simultaneously translate their speech into the headsets of the attendees.
Interpreters providing simultaneous translation services must be highly experienced and fluent in both languages to translate accurately and efficiently.
Interpreta Chile has a team of expert interpreters in different topics and areas of specialization. Our interpreters use high-quality simultaneous translation equipment to ensure seamless service delivery during your event.
