Translation or Interpretation?

'Translation' usually refers to the written word, whereas 'interpretation' is always oral.

There are different ways of interpreting, depending on the type of event and number of listeners:

Simultaneous Interpretation

interpreters

For large meetings. The interpreters will interpret what is being said as it is said. The interpreters sit in soundproof booths and the participants follow the proceedings in their own language through headphones.

Consecutive Interpretation

interpreters

For small meetings. No equipment is used and the speaker pauses while the interpreter translates what has just been said.

Whispered Interpretation

If required by only one or two people.
