Written LanguagePart of the complexity of ST lies with the nature of written language. Abbott, Greenwood,McKeating, & Wingard (1981), in their study of foreign language comprehension, point outthat written material is usually more densely packed with information than spoken language.The two forms also differ in lexical variety; sentence construction, level of vocabulary, andinvolvement or detachment (Agrifoglio, 2004). Furthermore, in written discourse there areno pauses to ailow the listener to catch up, and no intonation or stress to provide additionalclues for comprehension. Although punctuation serves the function of intonation in mostwritten documents, many handwritten documents that court interpreters are called uponto sight translate contain little or no punctuation, which further complicates the task.
