Pronunciation skills of an interpreter

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In order for a good interpreter to be understandable for everyone, her or his speech should not be marked by conspicuous regional or foreign features. If the goal is to help students develop unmarked pronunciation, we need to establish what such pronunciation is like. An error analysis of a student's interpreting performance is presented and discussed in terms of intelligibility and foreign-accentedness. This is compared with evaluations of intelligibility and accentedness by non-expert listeners. We show that Czech accent in English reduces intelligibility for non-Czech listeners with various first languages as compared to Czechs (which is in line with the so-called matched interlanguage intelligibility benefit, Bent and Bradlow 2003, J Acoust Soc Am114). However, the accent is neither more inconspicuous nor more neutral to Czech listeners.
