What is interpreting?

Interpreting is the process of converting spoken or signed language from one language to another in real-time. It is a complex and demanding task that requires a deep understanding of both the source and target languages as well as cultural nuances. Interpreting can take place in many different settings, such as in courts, hospitals, conferences, and international organizations. Interpreters must have excellent listening, memory, and communication skills, as they are responsible for accurately conveying meaning and intent between individuals who do not share a common language.
