Translation or interpretation?

Translation is the process of transferring in written form the meaning of a text from the source language into the target language as accurately as possible. Whereas interpreting is the process of listening to what a person is saying in a source language and rendering it in the target language but orally. The basic difference is that translation is written and interpretation is oral and different skills are required by the linguists to perform each.
