Simultaneous interpreting is the most common type of interpreting for conferences. The speaker’s speech is interpreted into another language in real-time. In simultaneous mode, spoken language interpreters work in soundproof booths, where they receive the sound feed through headsets and interpret the speech into the target language in real-time, with a delay of just a few seconds. Attendees listen to the interpretation through a headset and can listen to their language of choice.
Simultaneous interpretation requires professional conference interpreters who have undergone rigorous training. Simultaneous interpretation requires two or three interpreters per target language who work in turns, alternating at regular intervals (usually every 20 to 30 minutes).
