Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of complexities of the simultaneous interpreter’s activity in interaction with text fragments containing the speaker’s conceptual world, as well as to the processes of effective application of strategic components of interpreting principles. Understanding this interaction in the process of simultaneous interpreting appears to be extremely important as it directly impacts the effectiveness of communication in political environment. This article is aimed to clarify the multifaceted processes of simultaneous interpreting in which the interpreter focuses on the interaction with the source text that determines the audience’s appropriate understanding of the interpreted text. The tactics and strategies employed during the interpreting process are of primary importance in making this procedure possible. Various factors such as communicative context, comprehension of the presented text fragments, adaptation, competent and immediate transmission of textual meaning in the target language according to the specific characteristics of audience are also of great importance. The interpreter should adopt the idea and project - PACTE (Process in the Acquisition of Translation Competence and Evaluation) implemented in the European scientific field of translation and master the peculiarities of interpreting competence principles.

In this regard, the study provides a comprehensive analysis of strategies based on the speech of the President of Kazakhstan K. Tokayev. Textual materials from the field of political communication and the application of techniques based on these materials will demonstrate a deeper understanding of the subtleties of interpreting activities. In addition, the research on interpreter’s interaction with political materials is undoubtedly of value for further study of aspects of the complex and dynamic system of explicative method. The results of the study can be used to elaborate recommendations to streamline the process of interpreting political texts and reproducing the content taking into account the given context and the peculiarities of target audience.
