Unveiling the Role of a Professional Interpreter
Ever wondered why professional interpreting services are important and why companies are constantly seeking for trusted interpreters to provide high-quality assistance? In this article, we will delve into the reasons why engaging an interpreting agency can bring the best out of your client interactions, transcending language barriers and fostering trust.
Cultural barriers
A language is not a simple selection of words, on the contrary, it is the representation of a nation, a culture and hundreds of meanings that hide below the surface. When offering interpreting services, it is of extreme importance that each concept is well translated, ensuring that the real meaning of a phrase finds their way from one person to another.
Mere literal translations or those lacking context can lead to substantial misinterpretations. An adept interpreter possesses the keen ability to discern these cultural differentiations and convey not only the words but also their true contextual meanings.
Building trust
In September 2020, CSA Research conducted a survey across consumers in 29 different countries in Europe, Asia, North America and South America. A staggering 76% of online shoppers preferred to purchase products with information in their native language 40% stated that they would never buy products from websites in a language that wasn’t their own.
Languages function as conduits of trust, and so does interpreting. Businesses that truly support their customers are those that accommodate diverse language needs and empower themselves to potentiate their customer satisfaction by making them feel comfortable and listened to, fostering a sense of attentiveness towards customer’s inquiries, information and allowing them to understand the products or services they are seeking to purchase.
Specialism in culture and markets
A trained interpreter would not only bring their language expertise to the table but would offer knowledge in the cultures they’re dealing with and the sector that they work on. For services that require the use of industry-related vocabulary, it is essential that an interpreter can understand the words and their meanings to a high-quality standard and provide a proficient level of expertise in the professional area that they are interpreting for.
