Dialogue interpreting in multi-party encounters : two examples from educational settings
Vargas-Urpi, Mireia (Universitat Pompeu Fabra)

Date: 2015
Abstract: This article examines two multi-party encounters involving dialogue interpreting. Participant observation was conducted in these mediated interactions between service providers and Chinese users. The analysis of field notes and transcripts reveals some challenges these complex situations can pose for the interpreter: translating, coordinating turn-taking, and managing exchanges that include both adults and children, or even bilingual participants. The conclusions discuss how the interpreter can ensure an equal balance of power among the participants.
