Why don’t they just use one interpreter since they both speak the same two languages, or is that a security hazard?

So much respect for interpreters.
I couldn’t quite figure out why I was tired so soon every day after I moved to a different country. But listening to this kinda rings a bell.

According to google, they make a decent wage. In 2015, The average US federal government interpreter/translator made $75,000 yearly. The average for all interpreters/translators is less at $44,000 yearly.

I was in a semi-diplomatic luncheon once as a teenager, and the country’s representative had an interpreter that insisted on doing simultaneous translation for both parties (our translator got a break lol), but I remember seeing how frazzled and tired she was…now that I know that 30 minutes is the recommended time before swapping I’m blown away, because our lunch thing was at least 4 hours of continuous conversation. Poor woman.

That was fascinating. These translators are so skilled! The explanation behind translating jokes was my favourite! Had to laugh at the “Please laugh” part XD

How interpreters interpret errors/stutters in a speech? Do they correct as they processes the translation or genuinely translate the error?
