Online event interpreting using Zoom or any other online meeting tool has become part of our daily routine, especially since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. We have become accustomed to living and working productively in a remote environment, where Zoom meetings have replaced the usual meetings in conference rooms in offices.
Do you participate yourself or just organize international online events? Do the participants of the online event speak different languages? Have you encountered language barriers that hinder effective communication? With our help, that is now a thing of the past.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Depending on your requirements, interpreting on the Zoom platform can be organised in various ways. In most cases, participants who need interpreting must join our Zoom account to receive real-time interpreting. It is also possible to combine several tools if, for example, your company works only with MS Teams or another platform for information security reasons.
If possible, we recommend that the parties involved also conduct a test connection to see how everything works and whether the proposed solution meets your needs. We always strive to adapt to our clients’ requirements, so if you have any non-standard needs related to interpreting on the Zoom platform, please feel free to ask. We will be happy to help you in any way we can!
WHEN SHOULD YOU USE THE INTERPRETING SERVICE ON THE ZOOM PLATFORM?
Our clients use the interpreting service on the Zoom platform in a number of situations, for example:
- online meetings and presentations;
- business negotiations and talks;
- video conferences;
- online courses and webinars.
THE TOOLS AND PLATFORMS WE USE FOR ONLINE MEETINGS
Although Zoom is the most popular online event tool we use in our work, we are happy to assist you with events held on any other teleconferencing tool or platform, including:
- Google Meet;
- Microsoft Teams;
- Skype;
- Facebook Live;
- YouTube Live;
- Slack video calls.
LANGUAGE PAIRS AVAILABLE
At Skrivanek, we work with interpreters and translators from all over the world, providing translation in more than 110 languages. Therefore, we can offer translation services on the Zoom platform in all European languages and most languages of the world, so you don’t have to limit yourself to the languages offered by the Zoom web portal. The language pairs we work with most often are English, Italian, French, Spanish, Polish, Chinese (Mandarin), Russian, and many others.
Each Zoom meeting has at least one interpreter who can work remotely or be in the same meeting room with the other participants.
And what if there are several speakers during a single meeting or webinar? We can use multiple Zoom accounts and switch languages according to your specific needs. So, if you have a speaker from China at 1:00 p.m. and another from Spain at 2:00 p.m., we can follow along and provide interpretation for both languages.

TYPES OF ONLINE INTERPRETATION
We are comfortable working in a variety of formats. Depending on your needs, you can use the following types of online interpreting services.
In this format, only one interpreter works, translating from one language to another and vice versa. The interpreter listens while the speaker says four or five sentences from their speech. When the speaker stops talking, the interpreter provides a simultaneous interpretation of what has just been said. Consecutive interpreting is the simplest form of simultaneous interpreting and is suitable for smaller events.
This is the most modern form of interpreting for large-scale events. Interpreters simultaneously transform the spoken dialogue in such a way as to preserve the natural flow of the conversation or speech. The result is a clear and fluent interpretation for both the speakers and the listeners who use a different language. The minimum number of interpreters is two, but if speakers of several languages are participating in the event, up to 12 or more pairs of interpreters can work in parallel. Anything is possible, and we know how to do it!
WHISPERED INTERPRETING (CHUCHOTAGE)
This is a type of simultaneous interpreting where the interpreter listens to the speaker and interprets what is said, whispering the translation to only one participant during the face-to-face session.
