Sign Language Interpreting Service page

Sign Language is one of the fastest growing languages requested in Canada today. Our Sign Language, is a complex visual-spatial language that is used by the Deaf community. It is the native language of many Deaf men and women, as well as some hearing children born into Deaf families. Our linguists acquire various certifications through a specific educational and testing process. Certifications have 5 specific levels based on testing and desired mastery level. The levels are scaled 1-5, with 5 being the most advanced level. Another type of certification which exists separately from Our sign language is called Certified Deaf Interpreter, “CDI”. CDI interpreters are signers who happen to be Deaf or Partially Deaf themselves. They go through similar educational, testing and certification process as Our interpreters do.

our Sign Language Traits.

Portfolio Language Services shares no grammatical similarities to English and should not be considered in any way to be a broken, mimed, or gestural form of English. Some people have described our sign language and other sign languages as “gestural” languages. This is not absolutely correct because hand gestures are only one component of Our sign language. Facial features such as eyebrow motion and lip-mouth movements as well as other factors such as body orientation are also significant in Portfolio language Services sign language as they form a crucial part of the grammatical system. In addition, Our sign language makes use of the space surrounding the signer to describe places and persons that are not present.

What's the difference between translation and interpretation?

The main difference between translation and interpretation is that translation involves written content, while interpretation involves verbal communication. Translation uses computer aided translation tools and takes place over a period of time. Interpretation uses a different set of equipment, and it happens in real time usually over a short period of time.

When would you use a professional translating and interpreting service?

Use a professional translation and interpreting service when you need high-quality or quick turnarounds on translations or interpreting services. A language service provider should have the language resources to accommodate your needs and provide a high-quality result.

We Provide Other Type of Interpreting Services

Simultaneous interpretation

Simultaneous interpretation is generally used for large conferences and meetings, or in situations where two or more languages are required and the audience has mixed language requirements. Sometimes called UN-style interpretation, interpreters are isolated in booths and listen to the speaker through a headset. They speak the translation into a microphone, which is wirelessly transmitted to headsets worn by audience members. Not every interpreter is capable of performing simultaneous conference interpretation—delivering this service requires highly trained and experienced interpreters as well as specialized equipment, which we can deliver. We also have the technology to support either on-site or remote simultaneous interpretation Read more..
