WHAT OUR customers SAY
Voted Best Telephone Interpreting Company UK 2020
by SME Enterprise Awards and Best Document Translation Company 2017
Language Direct offers telephone interpreting services in London, including Walthamstow.
Defining telephone interpreting
This process begins by letting the first speaker speak his thoughts. The interpreter listens, then proceeds to translate it to the language used by the second speaker. Furthermore, this is called consecutive interpreting.
Additionally, the telephone interpreter allows for a smooth delivery of ideas between two people
A little bit on the history
The first known telephone interpretation service was done in Australia in 1973. It was then a free service provided for the number of immigrants moving there. In 1981, it gained popularity in the US. The first OPI (over the phone interpretation) service was also introduced there.
In the United Kingdom, this method of interpreting was introduced in 1990. Michale Young, a social activist, in an effort to provide services to small ethnic communities and help alleviate the language barrier, obtained the proper funding for this cause.
Things to remember when doing interpretation over the phone
If possible, the speakers’ backgrounds that may be helpful in the conversation must be provided.
Clear phone connections are important. The interpreter must have a headset with no feedback.
