Slovak Interpreting Services in Ely

UK Linguistic Services provides professional Slovak interpreters in and around Ely for GP and hospital appointments, schools, social services, police stations, courts and workplaces, in person or by telephone and video.

Slovaks came to Britain in large numbers after Slovakia joined the EU in 2004, many to work in warehouses, food processing, care homes and hospitals. A good number now have settled status and children in British schools. The need for a Slovak interpreter tends to arrive with the bigger moments of family life: a pregnancy, a child protection meeting, a tenancy dispute, an accident at work, an arrest.

Local Slovak Interpreters Around Ely

Slovak speakers are spread more widely than many people assume, with the largest numbers in the 2021 census in Bradford, Sheffield and Derby rather than London. That spread makes Slovak interpreters likelier to be found in Yorkshire and the East Midlands than in many other regions. Elsewhere we look for someone who can reach Ely, and offer telephone or video when that is faster.

Slovak to English Interpreter in Ely

A Czech interpreter is sometimes offered for a Slovak speaker, and older Slovaks who grew up watching Czech television will follow most of it. Younger Slovaks, born after the two countries separated in 1993, often find Czech harder than their parents do. The month names alone are completely different, Slovak using Latin-based names where Czech has its own Slavic ones, and that is exactly where dates in a statement go wrong. Book Slovak for Slovak.

Slovak Interpreter for Schools and Councils in Ely

Parents schooled in Slovakia are used to marks from 1 to 5, where 1 is the best, and to formal written reports; British levels and targets can mean little to them without explanation. For families from the east of the country, where many speak Romani at home, check before an attendance, housing or safeguarding meeting whether Slovak, Romani or a mix of the two will let the parent follow every point.

Slovak Police Interpreter in Ely

In a police interview the caution has to be understood, not just heard. A Slovak interpreter with police experience renders it in plain Slovak without adding advice of their own. They also make sure the suspect's name, accent marks and all, is spelt the same way on every form, since a name typed without them can look like a different person on a later database search.

Slovak Interpreter in Ely: Questions

Can a Czech interpreter cover a Slovak appointment in Ely?

For a quick informal chat, perhaps. For anything medical, legal or recorded, no: book a Slovak interpreter so nothing depends on how well the client understands a neighbouring language.

Do you have Slovak interpreters in Ely who also speak Romani?

Some Slovak interpreters also speak Romani. Tell us the family is Roma and we will look for one; if nobody suitable can travel, a Romani interpreter can join by phone or video.

Why does the Slovak surname on the mother's form not match the father's?

Slovak women's surnames normally take the ending -ová, so a husband called Horák has a wife called Horáková. The interpreter can confirm that the two names belong to one family.
