Mossi Interpreting Services in London

UK Linguistic Services finds professional Mossi (Mooré) interpreters in and around London for NHS appointments, asylum and immigration work, solicitors and councils, on site or by video and telephone.

Burkina Faso's emigrants have mostly gone to Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and France, so Mossi speakers in Britain are few and far between. The first thing to settle is whether the person really needs Mooré. Anyone who went through secondary school in Burkina Faso will have been taught in French, and many will be comfortable with a French interpreter. Farmers, older women and people who left school early are the ones who most need Mooré, and they are also the ones most likely to be misunderstood without it.

Local Mossi Interpreters Around London

We may not have a Mooré speaker within travelling distance of London, and often nobody in the region at all. A video interpreter joining from elsewhere in the UK, or from abroad when that suits the client, is the usual solution. When a French interpreter is used as a fallback, record in the notes that the client agreed to it.

Mossi to English Interpreter in London

Mooré is a tonal language, and a word said on a high or a low pitch can mean different things, so a speaker who learned it as a child picks up nuances that someone who learned it later can miss. Greetings also take time. A Mossi elder may expect a longer exchange of courtesies before the business starts, and an interpreter who cuts that short can lose the client's trust in the first minute.

Mossi Medical Interpreter in London

Malaria is part of daily life in Burkina Faso, and many speakers say "palu", from the French for malaria, about almost any fever. A doctor in London should hear that as a description, not a diagnosis. The same goes for returning travellers who visited family: the interpreter makes sure the dates of the trip and any tablets taken are clear.

Mossi Interpreter for Immigration Appointments in London

Since 2015 armed groups have driven large numbers of people from their homes inside Burkina Faso, and some claims for protection turn on where a person lived and how they left. Place names matter here. A Mossi interpreter will know village, department and province names in their local form as well as in French spelling, and can say so when an account names a place in two different ways.

A great deal of the country's senior court work happens at a single address on the Strand. The Royal Courts of Justice, WC2A 2LL, houses the Court of Appeal in both its civil and criminal divisions, the King's Bench Division, the Family Division and the Administrative Court. Central London County Court sits in the Thomas More Building on the same site and deals with housing possession and money claims, and its bankruptcy list runs from Room 1.05 on the first floor. With so many courts sharing one postcode, give us the name of the court and the case number when you book, not just "the Royal Courts", so the interpreter goes straight to the right list.

Several NHS trusts work within a couple of miles of Westminster. Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust runs St Thomas' Hospital, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs University College Hospital, and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children has its own trust. UCLH spreads its outpatient work over more than one building, including the Grafton Way Building and a site on Westmoreland Street, so the building named on the appointment letter matters as much as the hospital. The nearest mental health site is the Gordon Hospital, run by Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust.

For our purposes London means the centre, in the City of Westminster, and the same service reaches the City of London, Kensington and Islington, and south of the river Brixton and Wandsworth. Visitors fly in through six airports: Heathrow in the borough of Hillingdon, London City in Newham, Gatwick in West Sussex, Stansted and Southend in Essex, and Luton in Bedfordshire. Tell us which one when you book an interpreter to meet someone on arrival, because Heathrow and Stansted are a long way apart. We take bookings around the clock, for interpreters working face to face, by telephone or by video.

Mossi Interpreter in London: Questions

Is Mossi the same as Mooré for a booking in London?

Yes. The Mossi are the people and Mooré is their language. Either name on the booking reaches the same interpreters.

My client from Burkina Faso speaks Dioula. Should I book a Mossi interpreter in London?

Not unless Mooré is their first language. Dioula is a separate language, and we can look for that instead.

Will a Mossi interpreter know French legal terms too?

Usually. Most educated Mooré speakers work in French as well, which helps when a document or a term comes from Burkina Faso's French-language courts.
