Serving someone who does not speak your language
The hard part is rarely the words. It is that both of you are standing up, there is a queue, and neither can read the other’s face for whether it landed.
Three things that help before any tool
- One idea per turn. Two joined sentences arrive as none.
- Say the number, then write it. Prices, doses and dates are what get misheard and what cost the most when they do.
- Ask them to say it back. Nodding means “I want this to be over” as often as it means “I understood”.
What not to do
Do not use a passing relative as an interpreter for anything medical or legal — not because they translate badly, but because they edit. And do not raise your voice: volume has never translated anything.
When you use a phone
Put it where both of you can see it. Something that speaks out loud beats something that only shows text, because the other person hears their own language and knows they can answer.
An interpreter that speaks out loud.

Questions people ask before buying.
What do I do when a customer and I share no language?
Slow down, use short sentences and let a machine interpret out loud, one turn each. Written translation is slower than speech in person.
Does interpreting need an app?
Not on their side. They speak into your phone and hear the answer in their language.
Is it good enough for business?
For arranging, quoting and serving, yes. For a contract, use a human interpreter — and say so.
