Put the entire world at your fingertips. LinguaOne’s telephone interpretation services are easy to use and guarantee you’ll have total clarity for every International call.
Phone Interpreter Services | What to Expect
Here’s how it works.
You’ll be given a dedicated number and a unique access code.
You can use that to request an interpreter who will come on the line and communicate with the speaker on the other end of the call.
You’re essentially placing a 3-way call with your interpreter who will conversationally maintain the meaning of every word.
Over the Phone Interpreter | 24/7
In general, you’ll be connected in a matter of seconds, though rare language requests can take longer.
We’re available 24/7 to make sure your needs are met.
Once the interpreter is on the line you can speak to the other party just as if the interpreter were not there, directly.
The interpreter will provide a smooth and effortless link between you and the other party.
Just make sure you pause between thoughts to give the interpreter time to convey your meaning to the other party.
This is because, telephonic interpretation services are a little different than the ones you might receive from a face-to-face interpreter. Face-to-face interpreters interpret simultaneously, as you speak.
Via phone, we use consecutive interpretation, speaking only after each person has finished saying what they need to say. This is done to maintain call quality.
The interpreter will not say anything you or the other party does not say.
Telephone Interpreting Rates
Each call is charged by the minute for your convenience and to keep the call as cost-effective for you as possible.
When the call is complete you may hang up the phone and we will handle billing later.
Better Than Fluent
Our interpreters are all native speakers with a high degree of technical training in the medical, legal, business, and scientific fields.
This means they can handle even the most specialized terminology as it comes up on the phone.
Our interpreter training is ongoing to make sure they are ready for just about anything your industry can throw at them.
They are also adept at understanding idioms, cultural references and other peculiarities of native languages that don’t always translate well when simply conveyed word-for-word.
They maintain the meaning and emotion behind the call without disrupting the integrity of the communication or the flow of the call.
Every linguist at LinguaOne is certified, highly qualified, and rigorously trained. Your confidentiality is guaranteed as every interpreter maintains the highest levels of integrity.
We are here to make the process of communication easier for you, your patients, clients, witnesses, and customers.
