An interpreter is not a translator (we use our voice and gestures) (translators use the written word). An interpreter does not parrot (we do not repeat without thinking, we think and then re-phrase, in our language, the ideas expressed by others). An interpreter is not born one, to become one he/she needs: - to possess certain aptitudes - to acquire techniques - to follow a set of values and standards - to follow a path that will be full of twists and turns |
