About

Welcome to TerpLounge the tool to practice simultaneous interpreting more easily and on your own.

Enjoy practicing interpreting whenever you want, also spontaneously and ad-hoc. Relax and practice in a safe environment on your own, more quickly and productive than ever.

You’ll select a speech, interpret it and you'll be transcribed. You'll see a textual comparison between the source text and your transcript at the end for you to evaluate your performance yourself.

Please note that this is intended as a demonstration of the capabilities of the core service, and does not have features one would expect in a finished project, such as login and security. Apologies to mobile users—our user base works from laptop or desktop machines, so we've prioritized those for the time being.
