Consecutive interpreting is a form of interpreting in which the speaker leaves gaps in the spoken content to allow the interpreter to speak. The interpreter takes appropriate notes, translates and repeats the content spoken by the speaker. Consequently, meetings, etc. employing this form of interpreting will take about twice the time as one without interpreters.
Examples: Corporate meetings, business negotiations, press conferences, observational tours of factories, etc.
