	What are language interpreter services? Are they the same as language interpretation?
	Spoken translation of speech is called language interpreting, or language interpretation - yes, they're the same. Language interpreters let 2 or more people really talk, regardless of language. It's easy to see interpreting as a cost - a curse of working with "foreigners". Yet by allowing real sharing of information the added value our language interpreters can bring is immense, helping you succeed - whatever your goal.
	Can I get a language interpreter in any language?
	Well, most - our language interpreting service covers 150+, including BSL (sign language interpreting) and many rarer African, Asian and others. Most popular is BSL interpreting, then Spanish and French, then German and Italian. Court interpreting requires Polish, Albanian, Czech, and Indian interpreting in Hindi and Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali and Urdu. We're increasingly sourcing Chinese interpreting (Cantonese and Mandarin), Japanese and Thai, plus Turkish, Greek, Ukrainian and Russian. Growing in popularity are Latvian, Lithuanian, and Hungarian, and our language interpreter network frequently sources "unobtainable" languages such as Sylheti, Amharic or Dari. Our languages page shows some recent work.
	Is all language interpreting the same?
	No - format varies with need. Main forms are:
	LIAISON INTERPRETING: If you visit abroad, or someone visits you, you invest time and money. Why waste it not communicating properly? Our liaison language interpreting service, UK and worldwide, costs little but adds much. Visitor and visited can both perform 100%, maximising information exchange and visit value. We provide fully-briefed professional escort / liaison language interpreters or formal consecutive language interpreting experienced in your sector.
	SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING ("conference interpreting"): Remember how alone you feel abroad when you can't understand anyone around you? Many foreign delegates feel like that ALL CONFERENCE. Conferences cost a fortune to hold, largely wasted when delegates are isolated by language. Conference interpreting from our professional simultaneous interpreters or consecutive interpreters gives delegates far more from your conference, and your conference more from them. If only 2 or 3 require language interpreting a much lower-cost option is "whispering" interpreters (also called "chuchotage" - from the French for whispering).
	COURT INTERPRETING: Our wide network of experienced qualified DPSI & court interpreters covers most languages and works UK-wide, earning an excellent reputation. We are court interpreting providers to a wide range of law firms as well as the Police, Appeals Service and CPS.
	PUBLIC SERVICE INTERPRETING: SOCIAL, MEDICAL and LEGAL interviews and consultations are delicate situations where clients' inability to communicate can make stressful situations unbearable. Sensitive language interpreting reassures clients and ensures the fullest information transfer. We carefully select DPSI-certified (Diploma in Public Service Interpreting) public service interpreters for personal and technical skills to provide this essential language interpreting to solicitors, hospitals, social and police services, and local authorities.
	Many of our interpreters are also qualified in law, engineering or business with excellent technical knowledge and vocabulary. We carefully select and brief our language interpreters, ensuring they are suitable and prepared before the assignment, and receive frequent compliments for our language interpreting.
