The interpreting also happens in reverse: when a deaf person signs, an interpreter renders the meaning expressed in the signs into the oral language for the hearing party, which is sometimes referred to as voice interpreting or voicing. Interpreting services can be delivered in multiple modalities. This contract offers the following: In-Person Interpreting (IPI), Video Interpreting (VI) or Video Relay Service (VRS).
