Interpretation languages

We work according to AIIC and European Parliament parameters:

Active languages:
The language or languages into which the interpreter is capable of providing professional interpretation.
Passive languages:
For interpreters, passive languages are the languages from which the interpreter is capable of interpreting professionally.

In a meeting, passive languages are the languages from which interpreting is provided into active languages.
Language groups:
A language
B language
C language

A language:
The interpreter's native language (or another language strictly equivalent to a native language), into which the interpreter works from all her or his other languages in both modes of interpretation, simultaneous and consecutive.

B language:
A language other than the interpreter's native language, of which she or he has a perfect command and into which she or he works from one or more of her or his other languages. Some interpreters work into a "B" language in only one of the two modes of interpretation.

C languages:
The language(s) of which the interpreter has a complete understanding and from which she or he works. Interpreters often have several C languages.
