oral; persons professionally specializing in such work were called interpreters. In predominantly or wholly literate communities,
translation is thought of as the conversion of a written text in one language into a written text in another, though the modern
emergence of the simultaneous translator or professional interpreter at international conferences keeps the oral side of translation
very much alive.")
