Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The research highlights the professional competencies required for simultaneous interpreters, including linguistic proficiency, cognitive flexibility, stress management, cultural awareness, and rapid decision-making abilities. By comparing the experiences of the European Union and Uzbekistan, the article identifies both achievements and existing challenges in the field. The findings demonstrate that while the European Union has established a highly developed interpreting system supported by advanced technologies and specialized training institutions, Uzbekistan is currently undergoing a process of modernization and professional development in this sphere. The study concludes that improving technological resources and strengthening interpreter education are essential for enhancing the quality of simultaneous interpreting in Uzbekistan and integrating national practices into international standards.
