On Site Interpreter
Interpreters On-Site
Twenty years of experience at UN Plaza has given 1-800-Translate extraordinary experience in high-level interpreting. Our network of certified interpreters in 115 languages represents the very best concentration of ability and experience in North America.
1-800-Translate project managers will place highly qualified interpreters with industry expertise at your site worldwide. We regularly provide UN-, Federal-, and State-certified interpreters for conferences, seminars, negotiations, press conferences, focus groups, and more.
Consecutive Interpreters
On-site consecutive interpreters provide maximum interpreting accuracy. Speakers pause frequently (usually every few sentences) to allow the interpreter to speak, thereby interpreting what the speaker is saying. Because the pauses for interpretation can add considerably to the communication time, consecutive interpreting is most appropriate for one-on-one meetings, negotiations, etc. Consecutive interpretation's reputation for greater precision stems from the fact that the interpreter has more time to find the right word than when interpreting simultaneously.
Simultaneous Interpreters
Simultaneous interpreters, also known as conference interpreters, are available when you need international communication that is virtually seamless. Simultaneous interpreters translate as they listen, either via audio equipment or, much more rarely, by whispering into the subject's ear. This type of interpretation is necessary for large meetings, conferences, etc., where consecutive interpreting is not feasible. Because their work is especially strenuous, simultaneous interpreters generally work in pairs and require shorter shifts. Simultaneous interpreting almost always requires the use of interpretation equipment.
Interpreter Equipment
We offer all of the necessary equipment for successful interpretation. Set-up, breakdown and on-site technical supervision is included. We take care of all the details.
