Abstract: Information loss is categorized as interpreting error in SI, but recent study shows that “saying it all” is hardly possible. In technical conferences, information loss is more frequently observed due to the increased complexity of cognitive processing. This case study analyzes SI transcription of professional conference interpreters, aiming to find out triggers and impacts of information loss, as well as interpreters’ compensation strategies.
