Unlike a translator, who changes written words from one language to another, and INTERPRETER renders messages between languages in the spoken form. This can be in person both consecutively (one person speaking at a time and pausing for the interpreter to render the message), and simultaneously (interpreter renders interpretation while the parties are speaking, always a few words behind the conversation); or over the telephone.
Interpreters also provide Site Translation services. Site translation is the oral reporting of written material into the target language (ie: taking a confidentiality form that is written in English and reading it out loud in Spanish to the patient).
