Simultaneous Interpreters

In simultaneous interpreting the interpreter renders the speaker’s words almost as they are spoken, so a conference can run at normal speed with every audience member listening in their own language. PLG Translation provides simultaneous interpreters for conferences, seminars, forums and large meetings.

When simultaneous interpreting is the right choice

• Conferences, seminars, forums and workshops with international participants.
• Large meetings where consecutive interpreting would take too long.
• Multilingual events with several language channels.
• Presentations and training sessions with a fixed schedule.

What simultaneous interpreting involves

• Equipment: it usually needs interpreter booths or portable equipment, microphones and headsets. Tell us your venue and audience size so we can advise on the setup.
• Interpreters in pairs: because the work is very demanding, interpreters normally work in pairs for each language and take turns.
• Preparation: speeches, slides, agendas and glossaries sent in advance make a real difference to quality.
• Speaker pace: a steady speaking pace helps the interpreter keep up.

1. Tell us the languages, date, venue, number of participants and programme.
