Which kinds of interpreting are there?
Simultaneous Interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting means translating the speaker’s words in real time. Because it demands intense focus, at least two interpreters usually take turns in a booth. This method is ideal for big events or when the audience speaks different languages.
Chuchotage, which means whispered interpreting, is a form of simultaneous interpreting where the interpreter sits close to the listener and delivers the translation in a low voice. It is commonly used in court proceedings or similar situations.
Liaison Interpreting
In liaison interpreting , the interpreter conveys short segments of speech from one language to another and vice versa. This method is ideal for interviews, meetings, or negotiations.
How much does an interpreter cost?
Interpreting assignments are charged by the hour. My hourly rate varies depending on the type of assignment. For general and legal assignments, such as weddings or court proceedings, the rate is based on the German Judicial Remuneration and Compensation Act and is €93 for each hour started. In addition, VAT, travel expenses, and the full hourly rate for travel time will be charged. For more complex assignments, such as corporate presentations that need a little more preparation time, the hourly rate may be higher. For example, if you need an interpreter for a one-and-a-half-hour wedding ceremony near Würzburg, the total cost could be roughly €300. However, since each assignment is different, I recommend getting in touch with me so that I can provide you with a non-binding quote.
