Consecutive interpreting

In case of consecutive interpreting, the interpreter only speaks after the original speaker has finished their sentence. Meanwhile, they take notes and then accurately and clearly convey to the audience what they have heard.

This form of interpretation works particularly well in smaller groups or during interactive conversations, where dialogue flows back and forth and it is important to convey details accurately.

Tip: If possible, send us the background materials in advance so that our interpreters can prepare more thoroughly and do their work more efficiently.

When is it worth choosing consecutive interpreting?

Consecutive interpretation is the ideal choice when personal presence and the accurate communication of details are important, and when minor pauses in communication are not a hindrance. It is particularly useful in the following situations:

• Negotiations, business meetings
  Enables accurate and nuanced communication between parties.

• Official administrative procedures, court hearings
  Precise interpretation of legal and administrative language is essential.

• Medical consultations, hospital interpreting
  Understanding between patients and doctors can be a matter of life and death.

• Press conferences, interviews, protocol events
  Ensures more natural, direct communication for smaller groups.

• Courses, trainings, workshops
  The interpreter integrates into the schedule of the program, facilitating active dialogue between participants.
