Koinós: Leading consecutive interpretation services in Barcelona

Consecutive interpretation is usually limited to shorter speeches or presentations.

This is because, while the speaker is delivering a speech, the interpreter takes notes, and when the speaker pauses, the interpreter will then translate their words into the language of the audience.

This mode is useful for cases such as an opening speech, an interview, a gala dinner, and at book and show presentations.

Consecutive Interpretation: a great solution for specific events

Consecutive interpretation may be more affordable than other interpretation services, as it doesn’t require setting up interpretation booths and headsets. However, it isn’t suitable for all meetings and events.

When should I choose consecutive interpretation?

Translating into one language: consecutive interpretation is great to translate an opening speech prior to a concert, a film screening, a gala dinner, or a short press conference.

When you want to get your message across without focusing on words alone but rather on condensing and communicating the essence of your message, and for short speeches, then you may consider hiring a consecutive translator.

Translating between two languages: this is also known as liaison interpretation and is often used for diplomatic bilateral meetings, interviews, and negotiations with just a few participants. To ease communication, the interpreter combines notetaking and whispered or chuchotage

Consecutive interpreting is ideal for events where the speech will be brief and when the goal is to convey ideas rather than just words.

TECHNIQUE IS KEY FOR QUALITY CONSECUTIVE INTERPRETATION

Consecutive Interpretation: Specific skillsets, concentration, and conciseness

Consecutive interpretation is definitely not the best for long conferences or events, as the time needed to swap from speaker to translator would double the time needed, and listeners would easily lose interest, disengage and get bored while waiting to hear the translation.

Consecutive interpretation is demanding and requires highly trained translators with experience in note-taking techniques. This unique skill means the interpreter, while listening to the speaker, will also take notes on a pad using specific symbols and abbreviations, which only come with specific training and after a lot of practice. Our interpreters at Koinós are highly experienced and trained to provide quality service and deliver your message concisely.
