Welcome to The Language Dimension!

INTERPRETING

Our interpreters work in various styles: simultaneous, consecutive, ad hoc.  We specialise in working in 'whispering' mode, seated unobtrusively beside the listener, as well as in the more traditional 'ad hoc' or booth styles or the latest on-line conferencing situations. 

Radio-microphones and headphones are a stress-free option for everyone in a meeting where more than one participant wishes to listen to a 'whispering' interpreter.  And if delegates need to move into breakout groups, the interpreter - and the equipment - goes too.

If you want one-to-one 'whispering' interpreting for several individuals at one meeting, each in a different language, there's no problem.  Each interpreter speaks to an individual listener in his or her own language.

The interpreter's role is to:

  • Enable all delegates to participate in the meeting through a language in which they feel comfortable
  • Faithfully represent exchanges between participants in the language of the meeting and in the language of the participant
  • Maintain an impartial yet not impassive relationship with all parties 
  • Respect the confidentiality of all information handled

YOU BENEFIT FROM

  • Each participant being able to follow all proceedings
  • All participants feeling that their views and participation are valued - even before they arrive
  • Full team participation, regardless of language, country or cultural background
  • Aware of the needs of their colleagues, mother-tongue English speakers become equally involved in the mutual effort to understand and be understood despite language differences
