Abstract

A method and system of automatic interpreting in which either one or two telecommunication devices are used. In one arrangement, there is one phone shared by two parties who speak different languages. The languages to be spoken are identified e.g. using an onscreen menu on the phone and an appropriate interpreter is selected from a database and a call is placed to him so that he can interpret between the two parties at the other end of the line. In a second arrangement the two persons and the interpreter are at separate locations and a three-way call is initiated after the appropriate interpreter has been selected from the database.
