Skill and UnderstandingAsian Absolute's professional Korean interpreters employ a wealth of knowledge and experience in providing expert services for business, educational or social events. Of all the East Asian cultures, Korea is one of the least well known in Europe and the US. Whilst numerous images might spring to mind at the mention of China or Japan, Korea is still comparatively unknown both culturally and linguistically; this makes the need for knowledgeable assistance imperative. Along with adroit translations and written communications, a good interpreter is a must for Western organisations involved in Korea. Beyond linguistics, the impact of a good speaker comes through adoption of the correct signals, mannerisms and conduct, and we provide Korean interpreters alert to the intricacies of given situations. Even when conversing in English with Koreans, sensitivity to unique features of the culture is important. A person's given name is not used by anyone other than close friends and relatives, and people are referred to by their title. One would be called simply 'manager' or 'director' without an individual name, and so awareness of status is important. The size and layout of a room plays on the atmosphere in a business meeting, and traditional etiquette is central to professional situations. Our interpreters have first-hand knowledge of such details, and will make sure that nobody is surprised by differences in customs. Korea is a country in which a visitor really needs to speak the language to understand and integrate fully. Although undergoing change, Korean society remains tightly knit and it can still be difficult for foreigners to win trust and confidence. Traditionalists campaign for the elimination of English and Japanese words in the language - a trend which underscores the need to assimiliate and converse naturally. In an increasingly competitive market, the ability to communicate seamlessly will give a foreign enterprise the cutting edge in Korea. Use of a skilful Korean interpreter will help to bridge the cultural divide both in the first steps of co-operation, and as part of a blossoming business partnership. We are happy to discuss your specific needs individually, and aim to provide the most suitable interpreter for your event. We appreciate that the impression given by an interpreter is extremely important, and we ensure that all interpreters reflect our clients' standards of professionalism, courtesy, and specialist knowledge.
