Consecutive
Consecutive interpreting is when the interpreter translates or summarises
(usually in sections) after each of the speakers' contributions to
a conversation. It doesn’t require any specialised equipment
and is common for more informal situations - small business meetings,
committees and small conferences.
Simultaneous
Simultaneous interpreting uses audio equipment to deliver the interpreter's
version almost at the same time as the original source. This is more
commonly used in larger meetings or when a number of different languages
and different interpreters are required. A less technical version
of this is 'whispered interpreting', each client is assigned his/her
own interpreter to keep him or her informed during a conference or
meeting.
