Liaison interpreting 2 - BMEGT60S133

Building on the competences acquired during semester 1, the subject focuses on consolidating liaison interpreting strategies (fast code switching, coordinating speaker turns, controlling non-verbal forms of expressions, stress management and compensation strategies) as well as an expansion of thematic vocabulary development. The subject prepares trainees for the final examination at the end of the semester where they are required to render a dialogue with questions and answers (e.g. interview, business negotia-tion, etc.) in the consecutive mode. The subject also puts heavy emphasis on the extension of background knowledge, exact and detailed rendition as well as preparation for fictitious and real-life interpreting assignments.
