Auslan Interpreting in Australia
What Is Auslan Interpreting?
Auslan, or Australian Sign Language, is the primary language used by the Deaf community in Australia. Auslan interpreting involves converting spoken English into Auslan and interpreting Auslan back into spoken English. This ensures that Deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals can communicate clearly and confidently in both personal and professional settings. Our interpreters understand both the linguistic and cultural aspects of Auslan, enabling them to deliver accurate, respectful, and natural communication. Accuracy, cultural sensitivity, and professionalism are essential in ensuring both parties fully understand each other without confusion or misunderstandings.
