Professional Interpretation and Translation Interpretación y Traducción Profesional

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What’s the difference between consecutive and simultaneous interpreting?

Consecutive interpretation is the process of interpreting spoken language into another language after the speaker has paused. It’s primarily based on short-term and long-term memorization, so it requires the speaker to speak in short phrases and for the interpreter to take notes if needed. Simultaneous interpretation is the process of interpreting spoken language into another language a few seconds, or immediately, after the speaker has started talking. It requires the speaker to talk at a normal or slower pace and there are minimal interruptions.

What is the difference between translating and interpreting?

Translation is working with written language, text, and words. Interpretation is working with spoken language.

How far in advance do you have to book an interpreter or translation services?

You can book an interpreter far in advance- months, weeks, or at least a few days ahead of your assignment. We also can accommodate last minute requests depending on the circumstance. We offer flexibility based on your needs.

How long does it take to translate a presentation or document?

Translation services depend on the size of the project, including the number of pages or slides needed to be translated, the topic and terminology that’s being covered, and the language register. Please feel free to reach out and ask for a time estimation.

Which areas do you provide services in?

We are a local, small business in Fresno, CA that services the entire Central Valley, from the big cities to the rural areas of many counties. We can also accommodate areas extending outside of the Central Valley. All of our services are offered in-person and virtually.

How many languages do you cover?
