Over the Phone Interpretation
Over the phone interpreting is a three-way phone call connecting you, your interpreter, and the party you want to communicate with. What exactly is interpretation? It is the act of orally conveying the meaning of a source language into a target language, and it is performed by a specially trained professional. Interpretation is essential for creating a comprehensive understanding of any multilingual exchange. In our global society, it is important for businesses and institutions to employ multiple methods of interpretation.
