🤖 AI translation: YES, or better NO?
Honest answer? It's not that simple. 😊
AI can handle a lot today — it can help you quickly understand a text or process materials where you don't need to get every detail exactly right.
But for some texts, just "converting the words" isn't enough anymore. ⚠️
Legal documents, medical texts, technical documentation, or marketing content need accurate terminology, a feel for context, and often a review by an experienced expert too.
So it's not about whether to use AI.

It's about knowing when it helps — and when it can be a risk.

🖖 Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise.

🚀 On September 8, we celebrate Star Trek Day — and this year’s celebration is truly special. It has been 60 years since the Enterprise first set out among the stars.

Since its very beginning, Star Trek has shown us a universe where countless species, cultures, and civilizations meet. They do not always understand each other right away — but time and again, they search for a way to communicate.

And that is exactly why its message remains relevant today. It does not matter where we come from, what language we speak, or how differently we see the world. What matters is our ability to communicate, listen, and understand one another. 🌍

The languages of Star Trek have also gone far beyond the screen. Klingon, for example, has even made its way into academia — Arizona State University uses it as a tool for teaching the fundamentals of general linguistics.

And how would one of the most famous lines in world literature sound in the language of interstellar warriors?

👉 „taH pagh taHbe’.“
To be, or not to be.

Maybe that is one of the reasons why we at Skrivanek love Star Trek so much. It reminds us that languages are not just about words and grammar. They are a way to discover new worlds — both distant ones and the ones right around us.

🖖 Live long and prosper.

🎧 Different type of event, different type of interpreting.
Did you know that every event can call for a different way of interpreting? 😊
Training, an audit, a conference, or a business meeting — each situation has different needs.
Sometimes what matters most is room for questions and discussion. Other times it's accuracy, specialized terminology, or a fast reaction in real time.
That's why choosing the right interpreting isn't just about language. What matters is defining what communication needs to achieve during the event. 🌍

Take a look at which type of interpreting fits different situations.

🎧 Think an interpreter just needs to know two languages?
Language is the baseline, of course. But a good interpreter needs a lot more. 😊
They have to quickly grasp context, work with specialized terms, respond in real time, and preserve not just the meaning of the words, but the tone and intent of the whole message.
That's why interpreting is so much more than just "saying the same thing in another language." 🌍

Take a look at what really goes into professional interpreting.

🎧 Interpreted event? These are the things people often forget.
An interpreter isn't just someone who shows up and starts talking into a microphone. 😊
For everything to run smoothly, they need the right conditions and solid preparation.
📁 Background materials on the topic
💬 A clear interpreting format
🎤 Working equipment
⏱️ Enough time built into the schedule
Even small details decide whether communication during the event is smooth and pleasant for everyone involved. 🌍 That's exactly why good interpreting starts long before the event itself.

🎤 Did you know a presentation can be one of the most important materials for an interpreter?
It's not just "extra material." A presentation often contains exactly the information an interpreter needs to know in advance — product names, specialized terms, abbreviations, figures, charts, and the overall context of the talk. 🎯
When they see it beforehand, they can prepare better and focus during the event on what matters most: accurately conveying the speaker's message.
👣 A small step in preparation can make a big difference to how the whole event goes.
Do you send interpreters materials in advance? Or have you ever been surprised by everything they need to know? 🤔

🎧 Good interpreting doesn't start at the microphone. It starts before the event even begins.
For an interpreter to do their best work, they need to know the context — not just the language, but the topic, specialized terms, names, abbreviations, and the materials they'll be working with. 🌍
The better the preparation, the smoother the communication during the meeting. And most importantly, less time spent explaining things that could have been prepared in advance.
Preparation isn't a formality. It's one of the key steps toward making sure everyone actually understands each other.
💡 What do you think should never be missing from interpreting preparation? 🤔

💬 Need an interpreter? Sure, we've got you covered! But how do you pick the right solution? 🎧
Not every event calls for the same type of interpreting.
🎤 Simultaneous interpreting works well for conferences, large events, or whenever you need participants to listen smoothly without waiting.
💬 Consecutive interpreting leaves more room for dialogue, shorter segments of speech, and interaction between participants.
Choosing the right type of interpreting can make a real difference to the pace of the whole event and how well participants understand each other. 🌍
What type of event do you think would be the biggest challenge for an interpreter? 🤔

💬 For specialized texts, translation alone isn't enough.
The translator needs to understand what the text actually means within the field, the terminology in use, and the impact of any inaccuracies. 🌍

In legal texts, a small wording error can change the meaning; in medicine, precision is critical; in technical fields, the translation has to be usable in practice.
That's why specialized translation isn't just about the language pair — experience with that specific type of content matters just as much.
Have you ever come across a translation that was linguistically correct but completely off from a subject-matter point of view? 🤔
