About Osaka
With almost 19 million people living in the metropolitan area, Osaka is the second largest city in Japan by daytime population. It is located at the mouth of the Yodo river at Osaka Bay on the Southern coast of the main island of Honshu. Osaka was historically a city of commerce and played a vital role during the Edo Period in the Japanese rice trade. Nowadays, Osaka's primary industries are commerce, the service sector and manufacturing.
Two airports serve the city. The passenger airport, Kansai International Airport, opened in 1994, is situated on an artificial island in the middle of Osaka Bay. The city is also famed for its historic 16th-century castle, Osaka Castle.
What form/s of interpretation can The Japanese Connection provide in Osaka, Japan?
Simultaneous interpreting requires lots of skill and experience and can be very tiring for an interpreter, which is why it is common for two interpreters to work in partnership. They listen via a headset to the speaker and interpret what is being said into a microphone for the relevant audience members taking turns every 15/20 minutes.
Simultaneous interpretation like this is commonly required at conferences involving several different languages and many participants.
Consecutive interpreting is probably the most common type of interpreting and is widely used. It is used for business discussions, negotiations, contract exchanges, commercial discussions, legal, technical or engineering discussions, medical or court hearings or on-site inspections. The interpreter listens to the speaker, often making notes, and later delivers the meaning in the target language. If a speech is delivered, the interpreter may wait until a pause or the end, when they have a translation relatively quickly. Consecutive interpreting may also be used at conferences for panel discussions, Q&A sessions or private discussions between parties - at a stall or elsewhere.
Facilitating interpreting is used when a client has limited English / source language skills but requires technical or in-depth terminology to be clarified in their native tongue to avoid misunderstandings. The facilitating interpreter is there primarily to ensure communication is effective and relieve the client from the fatigue of speaking in a foreign tongue.
Telephone interpreting allows parties of different nationalities who cannot meet in person to communicate via telephone or video conferencing. The interpreter bridges the gap. Sometimes an interpreter is present in one of the two locations, and sometimes he/she is also located somewhere apart from both parties.
Our interpreting services also cover the following cities in and around Osaka:
