How interpreters juggle two languages at once

"Language is complex, and when abstract or nuanced concepts get lost in translation, the consequences may be catastrophic. Given the complexities of language and cultural exchange, how do these epic miscommunications not happen all the time? Ewandro Magalhaes explains how much of the answer lies with the skill and training of interpreters to overcome language barriers."

Interpreting explained


This video explains simultaneous and consecutive interpreting. Simultaneous interpreting occurs while a person is speaking. Consecutive interpreting occurs after a person has finished speaking.

Some insight into the life of an interpreter

"A Day in the Life of Real Interpreters, by director Sydney Pollack is an interesting look at the challenges of simultaneous interpretation, explained by Diana Liao, Chief of the Interpretation Service at the UN, and Brigitte Andreassier-Pearl, Chief of the French Section of the Interpretation Service at the UN. Pollack discusses the intention of the scenes on which he comments, what he added after shooting and took out in editing and why: story, locations, and some technical challenges."
