The Difference between Simultaneous and Consecutive Interpretation
Interpretation can have several forms. Two primary forms are simultaneous and consecutive Interpretations. Consecutive Interpretation includes a speaker who first speaks in his language and pauses. Then, in the break, the interpreter will translate the information into another language. Consecutive interpreting is standard in person, on the phone, or during video conferencing.
Simultaneous Interpretation includes sound equipment, where the interpreter is inside sound-proof booths and translates the information as soon as the speaker delivers them. Depending on the skills you need, you might get a different interpreter for the job.
