Our company offers both simultaneous and consecutive interpreting services. To this effect, we employ foreign professionals who are native speakers of one language and have perfect command of the other.
|

 Simultaneous interpreting |
| |
|
Simultaneous interpreting is perhaps the most difficult type of interpretation, performed almost at the same time as the speech of the source language speaker. Simultaneous interpreting is accomplished using special equipment: while working, the interpreter sits in a soundproof booth and relays the target language message through a microphone to the target language listeners wearing earphones.
|
| |
| We employ simultaneous interpreting for large-scale events such as conferences, workshops, round-table discussions, seminars and international negotiations. |
| |
| Advantages of simultaneous interpreting: |
 The original speech is delivered without breaks. This enables the speaker to focus the audience’s attention and sense the listeners’ moods and reactions. |
| Simultaneous interpreting may halve the time it takes to stage an event compared to consecutive interpreting. This improves the volume and quality of the exchanged information . At the same time, it saves time for both the participants and speakers, creates a comfortable working environment, and enhances the event’s prestige. |
| |
| Specifics of simultaneous interpreting: |
| |
|
As a rule, simultaneous jobs are performed by two interpreters. It is essential to relieve interpreters during simultaneous jobs due to the heavy workload and pressures involved. Usually interpreters work in pairs, relieving each other every 20 or 30 minutes.
|
| |
|
A qualified simultaneous interpreter has many years of training in this specialized field. A simultaneous interpreter must have strong concentration and listening skills, and be able to remember and translate what has been said at the same time, lagging behind the speaker by only a few words. A simultaneous interpreter, besides flawless language knowledge, must also possess impeccable personal qualities, such as broad erudition, tact, tremendous communication abilities, and instant reaction time.

| |
|
All of our simultaneous interpreters are outstanding professionals. We select appropriate simultaneous interpreter to fit the profile of each assignment.
|
| |
| |
| Consecutive interpreting |
| |
|
Consecutive interpreting involves oral interpretation delivered when the source-language speaker reaches a brief, logical pause, rather than simultaneously.
|
| |
| Our company offers consecutive interpreting for events involving a relatively small number of participants, such as: |
| |
| Business negotiations; |
| Telephone conversations; |
| Workshops, meetings, round-tables; |
| Briefings, press conferences, presentations, exhibitions; |
| Cocktail receptions, parties and special occasions; |
| Installation and modification of equipment involving foreign expert; |
| Sightseeing tours of Moscow and surrounding regions for foreign guests; |
Interpretation and dubbing of films and commercials.
|
| |
| Advantages of consecutive interpreting: |
| |
| 1) Consecutive interpreting does not require additional technical equipment; |
|
2) It is more efficient during negotiations held at industrial sites, for presentations, and to assist accompanying delegations;
|
|
3) It costs less than simultaneous interpreting.
