INTERPRETING SERVICE IN SINGAPORE
Interpretation or interpreting services are required when two or more people need to communicate but do not share a common language. There is also a huge demand for professional interpreting services, especially at international conferences and exhibitions.
Lingua Technologies International is at the forefront of language interpreter services with a distinguished list of local and overseas clients. We have a professional team of interpreters as a reliable interpreting company that supports all the major Asian languages. These interpretation professionals have native proficiency in both English and the target language.TWO DISTINCT TYPES OF INTERPRETING SERVICES
Out of the several types of interpreting services available, the most commonly used ones are as follows:
SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING
In simultaneous interpreting (SI), interpreters render the message in the target language almost immediately after the source language is spoken while the speaker continues to speak.
Interpreters are usually equipped with interpretation equipment such as headsets linked to the speaker's microphone to ensure that they can hear the words clearly and be located a distance away from the speaker but in the same room, ideally observing the conference from soundproof booths.
Simultaneous interpreting service is usually required at international conferences. Due to its intensive nature, two or more interpreters are generally on hand so they can alternate.
Upon special request, as a reliable interpreting company, simultaneous solo interpretations can provide up to 4 hours, but note that this is not the common industry standard practice.CONSECUTIVE INTERPRETING
In consecutive interpreting (CI), interpreters render the message after the source-language speaker has finished speaking. The speech is usually broken up into small segments, and the interpreter sits beside the speaker, processing the interpretation as the speaker progresses through the message.
Consecutive interpreting is commonly required for interviews, business meetings, medical consultations, marriage registrations, press briefings, court hearings, and other occasions where the number of people who need interpreting is small, and usually, only one interpreter is required for each speaker.WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE LINGUA TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL INTERPRETING SERVICES?
Professional Interpreters can interpret between two or more languages. They are professional linguists and must be proficient and fluent in their native language. The in-depth interpretation training and proficiency in more than one language allow them to be the communication link between two parties that speak different languages.
MANY DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES USE INTERPRETING SERVICES, INCLUDING—
- Healthcare - Interpreters help patients understand medical terminology and could be called upon to interpret medical procedures during an operation.
- Law - Judges and attorneys use interpreters when discussing legal issues in court. Interpreters can also help people understand legal terms that might not be familiar to them.
- Businesses – When business presentations and pitches are made to potential overseas investors more comfortable in their languages, interpreting services may be required to foster this understanding. Businesses with foreign branches covering overseas markets have employees who speak other languages. These employees often need interpreters when working with clients from different countries or cultures.
Interpreter services are an excellent option for people who need to communicate with someone who does not speak the same language as they do.
If you are visiting another country, it is essential to understand what is being said and communicated. Interpreting services can help ensure that everyone involved in the conversation can understand one another.
As an experienced interpreting company offering value-for-money interpreting services, our interpreters are bound by a code of ethics for interpreters. You will not only be assured of our professionalism in our interpretation work but also the confidentiality of our interpreters.
HOW DO YOU SEPARATE THE BEST FROM THE MEDIOCRE?
Apart from being highly competent in both the source and target languages, a good interpreter should also be familiar with the origin country's language culture, including their history and beliefs.
A perfect example would be the Japanese language, with varying levels of greetings used based on seniority—depending on whether they are talking to their family, superiors, colleagues, or friends.
However, because this service is of human effort, the audience's opinions are bound to be formed towards the linguists' appearance, sex, dress, voice, etc.
While this is unavoidable, as an experienced interpreting company, we can minimize such biases by deploying interpreters who are not run-of-the-mill occasional part-timers but professional interpreters equipped with years of experience and have completed hundreds of interpreting services.
