Questão de Língua Portuguesa

Texto II 1Abstract: This study is based on the analysis of a videotaped meeting which occurred between a professor, a doctoral student, and an interpreter, the transcript of that meeting; and playback interviews with the participants. I show that a unique feature of interpreted conversation occurs around simultaneous talk. When the primary speakers talk simultaneously, the interpreter recognizes this overlapping talk and makes linguistic choices to resolve the overlap by deciding who will get the turn. For instance, in this study the interpreter resolved overlapping talk by stopping one primary speaker and not the other. Many of his choices exemplified his understanding and interpretation of the social situation of an interview between student and professor. l will demonstrate that the interpreter in this meeting is not a neutral conduit, an implicit assumption behind much training and testing. Rather, the interpreter's role is active, governed by social and linguistic knowledge of the entire communicative situation, including not only competence in the languages, but also competence in the appropriate 'ways of speaking' and in managing the intercultural event of interpreting.
