Whispered Interpretation

Help Clients empower & engage People in Communication

In whispered interpreting (chuchotage, in French), the interpreter sits or stands next to the small target-language audience whilst whispering a simultaneous interpretation of the matter to hand; this method requires no equipment but may be done via a microphone and headphones if the participants prefer.

Chuchotage is used in circumstances where the majority of a group speaks the source language, and a minority (ideally no more than three people) does not speak it. Learn more about our whispered interpretation service in the blog ‘What is Whispered Interpretation?’
