Consecutive interpreters are professionals who facilitate communication between speakers of different languages by interpreting spoken language in segments. They listen to a speaker, take notes, and then convey the message in the target language after the speaker pauses. This method allows for accurate interpretation while maintaining the speaker's intent and tone. This type of interpretation is commonly used in settings such as business meetings, conferences, and legal proceedings. Unlike simultaneous interpreters, who translate in real-time, consecutive interpreters work in a more structured manner, ensuring clarity and comprehension for all parties involved.
