Interpretation is the intellectual activity that consists of facilitating oral or sign language communication, either simultaneously or consecutively, between two or more speakers who are not speaking the same language. The word interpreter refers to the practitioner who helps people to converse in different languages or in sign language. Interpreters must convey all the elements of the language, along with the intentions and feelings of the original, source language speaker. In fact, the service provides a unique platform in the stage of spoken communication. It helps the listeners to hear, perceive, and experience the message in a way that is as close as possible to the experience of those who understand the original, source language. Interpreting, simply stated, is receiving a message in one language/dialect and delivering it in another. Interpreting is a complex process that requires a high degree of linguistic, cognitive and technical skills.
