Interpretation: The Shifts from Types to Modes

Abstract

This study uses a descriptive approach to develop its assumptions. The study is an essay to limit the factors involved during an interpretation process. It also focuses on the shift in the interpretation process from a type to a mode. The discussion will tackle the three major types of interpreting: sight, consecutive, and simultaneous interpreting. These attempts are used in teaching interpreting to undergraduate students and potentially those of higher levels. The study also analyses the modes of interpretation showing the significant changes and type shifts that occur during some interpretation processes. The study examined the usefulness of the types in conference interpreting. The study reveals the utility and the techniques to install in undergraduate studies on interpreting for the benefit of the students of interpreting. The study found that types and modes are necessary in conference interpreting.
