1. Consecutive interpretation services in UK
Interpreting takes on several forms depending on the context and requirements of the situation.
Consecutive interpretation enables the interpreter to perform real-time communication in
different languages and involves a process where a person reiterates out loud what the speaker
has said in a language requested by the client. It merely is a process where the speaker makes
a speech whilst the interpreter records it in a written form and then reproduces it to the client.
The three main actions involved in this form of interpretation are Understand (listen actively)
Make structured notes (analyse) and Communicate (reproduce).
Being able to listen actively, analyse what the speaker is saying, create valuable notes and then
reproduce it in your active language are the key skills required to be a good consecutive
interpreter.
During this process of interpreting the speaker pauses after a few minutes, usually at the end
of every paragraph, and the interpreter then steps in to reiterate what was said into the language
as requested by the client.
Requirements of Consecutive Interpretation Service
Consecutive interpretation service is extremely simple. It does not require any equipment like
headphones, microphones, audio consoles or soundproof booths. All that the interpreter need
are notepads, pencils. And most often it requires a single person, meaning the interpreter works
alone.
The form of interpretation service is applicable for classes, seminars with a limited number of
participants, business meetings, etc. The audience is smaller when compared to large
conferences that use simultaneous interpretation services.
Skills of a Consecutive Interpreter
The consecutive interpreter must be fluent, experienced, expertise in a particular subject,
cultural knowledge, understanding of the nuances of the language, sharp memory, excellent
speaking, and keen hearing. Apart from memorization, the consecutive interpreter should be a
fast writer, good at note-taking to help them remember the concepts and ideas that the speaker
wants to deliver. The way the interpreter takes notes depends on his training and past
experiences.
The notes taken are kept very simple and legible, with only the basic information and ensuring
they will be easier to read and summarize the message received.
Advantages of Using Consecutive Interpretation
It’s all about speaking different languages to understand one another. The setup is simple and
the consecutive interpreter normally stays next to the speaker listening and jotting down the
points in simple legible language.
Consecutive interpretation has its advantages, such as:
• The delivery of the interpretation is fluent.

2. • The quality of the translation is better since the consecutive interpreter has more time
to prepare and to choose the words prudently.
• There is no need for any expensive piece of equipment.
• The client tends to understand the message better, see and hear the speaker’s tone of
voice and body language and can appreciate the translation better.
Nonetheless, this form of communication is extremely simple and may be used for sectors such
as businesses or in the court of law on the witness stand. A back and forth style of interpreting,
with multilingual speakers taking turns speaking and then interpreting. A significant skill
involved in consecutive interpreting is meticulous listening, note-taking and then interpreting
without loss of any detail.
