Simultaneous interpretation:
The abbreviation of "simultaneous interpretation", also known as "simultaneous interpretation" and "synchronous interpretation", refers to a translation method in which the interpreter explains the content to the audience without interrupting the speaker. Simultaneous interpreters provide instant translation through special equipment. This method is suitable for large-scale seminars and international conferences, and is usually conducted by two or three interpreters in turn.
Simultaneous interpretation is efficient and can ensure the smooth progress of speeches or meetings. The income of simultaneous interpretation is generally high, but the threshold of simultaneous interpretation is also high. At present, 95% of international high-end conferences in the world adopt simultaneous interpretation.
After the end of World War II, the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal established in Germany used simultaneous interpretation for the first time in the trial of fascist war criminals, which is also the first time in the world to use simultaneous interpretation in large-scale international activities.
