Abstract
-
Many interpreter training programs focus on the information-sharing aspects of communication, prioritizing these over communication-related elements of interpreting. This action research project explores communicative elements of an interpreted encounter, metalinguistic capacities required for competent interpreting and facilitation of communication between speakers of different languages. Specifically, this project explores which metalinguistic TASKS (Talents, Attitude, Skills, Knowledge, Style) are important to teach interpreters and how to best teach these skills, regardless of the languages the interpreters are being trained to work between.
