WHISPERING

TRANSLATION

The speaker keeps speaking while the interpreter follows it in a whispering voice.

This happening only when the atmosphere is relaxed and accuracy of

numbers and facts is of less importance.

CONSECUTIVE

• The speaker pauses from time to time to allow the interpreter to speak.

• The important thing is not to

  speak for too long before pausing: interpreters can only retain so much if they are to render it

  accurately.
