Are you a delegation in Astana looking to meet with high officials of the country? Then you’ve come to the right place.
Consecutive interpreting is when a speaker pauses to allow an interpreter to repeat what has been said in the target language before continuing.
You’ll sometimes hear consecutive interpreting referred to as ‘listen before talk’ interpreting – we think that’s a pretty good name as it describes exactly what happens.
A good way to approach this is to think of a consecutive interpreter as someone who has just joined your company to start a new job. There will undoubtedly be acronyms, technical terms and politics which will be unfamiliar to them.
Briefing the consecutive interpreter before the assignment begins will lead to a far more satisfactory day for all involved.
Consecutive interpreters will always find it useful if you can provide some background information about the company and its products well ahead of the assignment. Provide drafts of speeches and explain any specialist vocabulary.
