A Tough Combination to Find

In a recent trial in Japan a Somali defendant who had been accused of hijacking an oil tanker had been brought to court. The court had postponed the trial for a while because they could not find a well-qualified interpreter who could do the combination of Japanese and Somali. Those who had experience providing professional translation for Japanese spoke English but not this rare language. Finally, the court decided to hire an interpreter who could translate Japanese to English and another person who would translate the English into Somali. This arrangement significantly slowed down the court.

Additionally, lawyers have expressed that having two interpreters has increased the chances of mistranslations. They question whether the unavailability of an interpreter who can work with both languages is a violation of human rights. They want to make sure that the parties they are representing are guaranteed fair trials. Professional Japanese interpreters who are skilled in the legal field can help non-English parties who appear in court to express themselves and understand what the other parties say to them.
