What Is Over The Phone Interpreting And How Does It Work?

Interpreter phone services are the go-to option for business owners and individuals who are in urgent, often last-minute need, of direct interpretation assistance. 

At Languagers, we are a leading U.S. interpreter agency which makes it possible to connect with phone interpreting professionals in seconds. Literally, all you need to do is pick up the phone and tell us what language you need translating.  

Here, we’ll look at the basics of how our telephone interpreting service works. 

What is Over the Phone Interpreting?

At its most basic, phone interpreting takes the form of a 3-way telephone conference call between two individuals who speak different languages, and a third-party interpreter. 

As a rule, it is always advisable to schedule conference calls with interpreters in advance if possible. However, this isn’t essential. This is also why at Languagers, we are the go-to phone interpreting agency in the U.S. for everyone from business owners to medical professionals who require instant access to interpreters.

How Does Languagers' Telephone Interpreter Service Work?

At Languagers, how our telephone interpreter service works is simple. When you need to hire an interpreter, you simply call +1 (800) 527-3001 and let us know what language you need interpreting.  

When you call or contact our team, we will also inquire about the context of your call. This is so that we can match you with an interpreter who has experience in your industry. 

• At Languagers, we can supply on-demand phone interpreters to everyday business owners, and professionals in specific industries like the medical industry. 

• As soon as you let us know what language you need help interpreting, we will identify one of 6,000 certified interpreters best suited to jump on a call with you immediately.   

• Once we have identified the right interpreter to pair you with, we will set up a conference call between you, your interpreter, and your client or business associate. 

As well as setting up conference calls, our team at Languagers can also pair you instantly with an interpreter who can come on the line and interpret on behalf of you to a person at your location.  

This means that if you are a medical professional already with a patient or a business owner trying to communicate with a customer in person, you can do so instantly simply by calling our 24/7 helpline. 

How Much Does Phone Interpreting Cost?

At Languagers, we work quickly to pair you with phone interpreters within seconds of your call. We also pride ourselves on being able to offer the best phone interpreting rates applicable anywhere in the United States. However, what rate might apply to your call will depend on the overall context of your conversation. 

Connecting you with specialized legal and medical translators will typically command a higher call rate than that applicable when connecting you with the likes of a conversational Spanish translator. In every case, though, we will provide you with a full quote prior to calls commencing.
