Bihari Interpreting Services in St Austell

UK Linguistic Services provides professional Bihari interpreters in and around St Austell, matched to the language the person actually speaks, for hospitals, GP surgeries, solicitors, immigration advisers, councils and the police, face to face or by telephone and video.

"Bihari" is a word to unpack before anyone is booked. It names a family of languages, the largest being Bhojpuri, Maithili, Magahi, Angika and Bajjika, and it is also simply what people from Bihar are called, whatever they speak. In Bangladesh it means something else again: the Urdu-speaking community whose families came from Bihar around Partition, many of whom lived for decades as "stranded Pakistanis" in camps such as Geneva Camp in Dhaka. A request for a Bihari interpreter can therefore mean any of five or six languages, or Urdu.

Looking for a Bihari interpreter in St Austell and not sure which language that means? Call us now on 0800 2425 125 or email quotes@uklinguisticservices.co.uk with the person's home district in India, Nepal or Bangladesh, and we will work it out with you.

Local Bihari Interpreters Around St Austell

Interpreters for the Bihari languages are rare in the UK, and one who speaks a particular language, Magahi say, may not be available near St Austell at short notice. There are two practical routes. Because schools in Bihar teach in Hindi, a Hindi interpreter is often the quickest answer for a routine appointment. For anything sensitive, a video link lets us look for someone who speaks the person's own language, wherever in the country that interpreter is based.

Bihari to English Interpreter in St Austell

Many speakers of these languages write "Hindi" on a form, and not by mistake. India's 1961 Census folded Bhojpuri, Magahi and their neighbours into Hindi, official business in Bihar is conducted in Hindi, and educated speakers often describe themselves as Hindi speakers in formal settings. So a GP record or a custody form can say Hindi while the person speaks Magahi at home and is far more at ease in it. A good interpreter checks early which language is really in use, and tells the professional if the conversation would go better in it.

Bihari Interpreter for Immigration Appointments in St Austell

If the client is a Bihari from Bangladesh, the language you need is most likely Urdu, not a Bihari language, and the community's history may matter to the case. Many were left stateless after Bangladesh's independence in 1971, and it was only in 2008 that a High Court judgment gave Bangladeshi citizenship to those who had been minors in 1971. An immigration adviser will want the client's own account of where they were born, registered and lived, so book an Urdu interpreter and ask whether Bengali would help too.

Bihari Police Interpreter in St Austell

At a police station the choice between Hindi and the person's home language is a legal question as well as a practical one, because a suspect has to understand the caution and every question in the interview. If a Hindi interpreter is used for a Bhojpuri, Maithili or Magahi speaker, the custody officer should ask, and record, whether the person is comfortable in Hindi, and the interpreter should say at once if the answers suggest they are not.
