Simultaneous interpreting is considered the most challenging type of oral translation. The interpreter must master the art of listening to text in the source language, instantly understand and translate it, and simultaneously speak it out loud in the target language. A simultaneous interpreter for Dutch either provides real-time oral translation into Dutch as a target language, or translates the Dutch source into your target language. From Dutch into English, and then into Japanese? We can also cater for the more unusual language combinations. Where there are no experts to cover the desired combination directly, we resort to our Dutch relay interpreters.

Relay interpreting – the way to implement also the most exotic language combinations!
Relay interpreting is a special type of simultaneous interpreting. The interpretation likewise takes place in real time, but a first interpreter translates the original source text into a language understood by the second interpreter, who then in turn renders this translation in the target language. Not quite sure you understand?

Okay – let’s go back to the above example: Let’s assume the speech is given in Dutch. Interpreter A hears the Dutch original and speaks his/her English translation into the microphone. Interpreter B listens to the English version and speaks the Japanese translation that the target audience will hear through their headsets. It sounds complicated, but we make it easy for you. After more than 20 years of experience in all types of interpreting, we have routine enough to find a solution for all your needs.
