چکیده

During simultaneous interpreting, it is likely that interpreters encounter with tweeter messages, which might be challenging, due to their informativeness and conciseness, to interpret. The present study aims to investigate the techniques applied by interpreting trainees dealing with tweeter messages while simultaneously interpreting. To this end, 10 MA English Translation students of Allameh Tabataba’i University in Tehran, Iran, with the average age of 26 were asked to interpret a three-minute video clip on a general topic accompanied by tweeter messages appearing on the screen. To identify the techniques, the recorded interpretations were transcribed and then analyzed. The findings revealed that “reduction” was the mostly preferred technique, among those proposed by Molina and Hurtado Albir (2002), in tweeter messages interpreting. It can be concluded that the interpreting trainees were unprepared for dealing with visual inputs— tweeter messages in this case—under time pressure during simultaneous interpreting and also gave priority to aural rather than visual input. This implies that interpreter training courses must take the visual inputs presented during simultaneous interpreting into account and offer trainees appropriate techniques to enable them to interpret such inputs.
