Note-Taking for Consecutive Interpreting: A Short Course is the essential step-by-step guide to the skill of note-taking. The system, made up of a range of tried and tested techniques, is simple to learn, consistent and efficient. Each chapter presents a technique, with examples, tasks and exercises. This second edition has been extensively revised throughout, including:
- an updated chapter on speech analysis
- new chapters on comparisons and links
- revised example speeches and notes
- a summary of other authors' note-taking guidelines for comparison and reference (Part 3).
The author uses English throughout - explaining how and where to locate material for other languages - thus providing a sound basis for all those working in the areas of conference interpreting and consecutive interpreting in any language combination. This user-friendly guide is a particularly valuable resource for student interpreters, professionals looking to refresh their skills, and interpreter trainers looking for innovative ways of approaching note-taking.
