Publisher: Multilingual Matters
ISBN: 1847698107
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 341

In recent decades the explosive growth of globalization and regional integration has fuelled parallel growth in multilingual conferences.

It is meant to serve as a practical guide for interpreters and as a complement to interpreter training programs in the classroom and online, particularly those for students preparing for conference interpreting in international governmental and business settings. This expanded second edition includes additional exercises and provides direct links to a variety of web-based resources and practice speeches, also including additional language combinations.
