Unilateral & bilateral consecutive interpreting
As all other types of interpreting, consecutive interpreting can be unilateral or bilateral. This means that the interpreter either translates only from the source language into the target language (unilateral) or also back into the source language (bilateral). Bilateral consecutive interpreting is used for example in appraisal interviews, negotiations or interviews. Usually, only one interpreter is present, promoting an intimate, trusting environment.
