These are rarely available at a conference venue, but can easily be rented.

Book an interpreter: Background knowledge on interpreting

Sign language interpreters translate the spoken word and all relevant acoustic information simultaneously into sign language. There are various standards such as DGS (German Sign Language) or LBG (Sign Language Accompanying Spoken Language). Please note: There is no international sign language, sign language is often country-specific and there are even regional dialects.

 

The trend: In terms of equality and accessibility, quality, demand and offers for sign language interpreting are increasing. Are you new to the topic of "accessibility and sign language"? We will be happy to advise you and arrange professional sign language interpreters.

Automated sign language interpreting with avatars is developing rapidly. We are not yet satisfied with the quality and do not offer it. This may change in the future, we will be happy to keep you up to date here. 

Automated language translation without disruptive time delays and in sufficient quality is seen by many – as the next big revolution, and rightly so. We are not yet using this technology, but we assume that this will change in the near future. Data protection and confidentiality issues have not yet been sufficiently clarified. Currently, AI solutions process conferences on public servers; a professional in-house solution is still lacking.

 

Nevertheless, we see the positive aspects of automated simultaneous interpreting where we are unable to implement current standards, for example for budgetary reasons.

The main difference between translating and interpreting lies in the medium of language:

 

Translate:

Written languageTranslators transfer texts from one language to another.

Accuracy and stylePrecision and formal style are important.

TimeThe translation process can take longer, as the translator has to read and understand the text carefully.

AidsTranslators use various tools such as dictionaries, grammar books and translation software.

 

Interpreting:

Spoken LanguageInterpreters translate the spoken word from one language to another in real time.

Language flow and cultureA natural flow of language and consideration of cultural differences are important.

TimeInterpreting is a time-critical process, as the interpreter must react immediately.

AidsInterpreters usually use interpreting technology.

 

Other differences:

Context: Translators have more context because they can see the entire text. Interpreters have to infer the context from what is said.

Storage: Translations are stored permanently, whereas interpreting services are volatile.

Training: Translators and interpreters require different training and qualifications.

 

Summary

Translate: In writing, accurate, time-consuming, text-oriented, diverse tools.

Interpreting: Oralfluent, time-critical, communication-oriented, situation-specific tools.

You can rely on us to provide you with the best interpreters to ensure your event runs smoothly and successfully. Contact us today to find out more about our services and discuss your interpreting needs!

 

Remember: high-quality interpreting services are an investment in the success of your conference. That's why our offers are tailor-made. The decisive factors here are the duration of the event, the languages used, the topic of the conference and whether the conference is to be broadcast live and subtitled or whether sign language interpreters are to be used.

 

Early planning and booking of the interpreting team is recommended. This is particularly important if your event is taking place at a time of year when many conferences are already taking place, i.e. in spring or fall. Simply get in touch with us.
