Portuguese Interpreters in the UK

English - Portuguese interpreting provided by professional Portuguese linguists based in the United Kingdom via Translator UK.

Interpreting is the act of translating verbally from one language to another. Since the Covid Pandemic, remote interpreting has become more popular (via Zoom, Teams or other similar platforms) but in-person interpreting is also still in demand on certain occasions. All of our Portuguese interpreters are -qualified linguists, who are experienced in interpreting. We have an extensive pool of Portuguese interpreters available for your needs. We will always try to allocate an interpreter based in the vicinity of where the interpreting job will take place but if this is not possible, our Portuguese interpreters are willing to travel of course.

Simultaneous Interpreting between English and Portuguese

The Portuguese interpreter translates the speaker's words in real time. We are often asked to provide this service for conferences and large meetings where it is crucial to maintain the flow of the conversation without interruptions. Our interpreters typically work in soundproof booths, using headsets and microphones to ensure clear and uninterrupted communication.

Consecutive Interpreting between English and Portuguese

The interpreter waits for the speaker to pause before translating segments of speech. This method is suitable for smaller meetings, courtrooms or even something as small as a doctor’s appointment where more detailed and accurate translations are necessary. It allows the Portuguese interpreter to capture the full context and nuances of the speech, providing a more comprehensive translation, so that the client understands everything that is being said.

Over-the-Phone Interpreting between English and Portuguese

Interpreting services provided via telephone are useful for quick or emergency situations. This method is highly accessible and can be utilised without the need for physical presence, making it an ideal solution for urgent matters or when on-site Portuguese interpreters are not available. It is commonly used in customer service, healthcare, and legal settings.

Video Remote Interpreting (VRI) between English and Portuguese

Interpreting services provided through video calls allow for visual cues and body language to aid communication. VRI combines the convenience of remote Portuguese interpreting with the added benefit of visual support, which can enhance understanding and accuracy. This method is particularly effective in medical, legal, and educational environments where visual context is important. It is also used a lot for business meetings when the client wishes to speak to someone in another country, for example. VRI can be carried out by Teams, Zoom, Google Meet and other similar platforms.
