Can you think of professional situations in which an interpreter needs deep understanding of cultures?

English

Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Interpreters who work in community settings with participants from disparate cultural backgrounds may confront difficulties conveying the source message into the target message accurately due to cross-cultural differences. Such cross-cultural differences can range from pragmalinguistic differences at the discourse level of speech to sociopragmatic differences, which go beyond the utterances. When confronted with such instances, interpreters are almost always unsure of how to react and of what is expected of them. The few studies that have looked at cross-cultural differences in community interpreting clearly show that there is no consistency in the way interpreters approach potential cross-cultural misunderstandings. This paper will present the results of a section of a questionnaire of a larger study, which asked practising legal interpreters whether they alert judicial officers and tribunal members of potential cross-cultural differences, and which also asked judicial officers and tribunal members about their expectations of interpreters in such situations. The results point to a need for greater guidance and clearer protocols for interpreters working in the legal system.

If all citizens are equal and John and Mary are citizens then
Doss [256]

Answer:

... John and Mary are equal.

Explanation:

We can use basic logic reasoning to complete this sentence. We have two premises that, being true, lead to a conclusion.

Premise 1: All citizens are equal.

Premise 2: John and Mary are citizens.

In that case, John and Mary are equal. They are citizens, and all citizens are equal. At no point, we are told John and Mary are an exception to this fact. So, John and Mary's being equal is the only logical conclusion from the two premises we have.
