ABOUT US
Looking for quality interpreters and translators you can depend on? Well, look no further. This is INTERCOM Language Services, available where you need us when you need us. In 1997, Hilary - our KUDO Certified founder and president - began schooling for interpreting and translation for the court and medical fields. Learning languages has been a life-long passion of hers. Growth of the immigrant population in the Seattle metropolitan area allowed her to put her passion to work.
AREAS OF SERVICE
VIDEO REMOTE INTERPRETATION (VRI)
A unique skill that requires a person to speak in two different languages. An interpreter will change the words that are being spoken in English in to another language. A trained and educated interpreter will be able to assist in relaying information, while being neutral in any situation.
REMOTE SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETATION (RSI)
Exchanges one written language for another. This helps someone who does not read the original written language. Using a professional translator ensures that all information is carefully and thoughtfully written.
WHAT'SÂ THE DIFFERENCE?
An INTERPRETER will sit with you in an appointment and help you understand what is being said.
​
A TRANSLATOR will take any document that you have been sent or given and change it into your preferred language.
AREAS OF SERVICE
TRANSLATION
Exchanges one written language for another. This helps someone who does not read the original written language.

VRI
Video Remote Interpretation is when the interpreter is off-site and connected to the parties virtually using one of various platforms (Zoom, Webex, Skype, FaceTime). The parties wishing to communicate can be located in one place or linked from separate locations.
RSI
Remote Simultaneous Interpretation allows attendees to listen to the interpreter in real time, preserving the flow of the speaker’s original language. This is done with an interpreter off-site and connected via video or telephone to the conference.
IN-PERSON OR TELEPHONIC INTERPRETATION
Is a unique skill that requires more than just a person who speaks in two different languages. An interpreter will change the words that are being spoken in English into another language. A trained and educated interpreter will be able to assist in relaying information, while being neutral in any situation. All of our interpreters are trained and certified to the highest levels available in their languages.

CONSECUTIVE INTERPRETING
Step by Step Process
A stop and start style of interpreting. Each person takes a turn speaking. This is the clearest form of interpretation and is used especially when the parties need a recording of the conversation.
SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING
Real Time Flow
As the name implies, the interpreter listens to one language while rendering what is being said into another language at the same time. This keeps the conversation flowing in near real time.
