Translator vs Interpreter

[jaggers]

What's the difference? :s

Translator...written word Interpreter spoken word.

Also, if used in the same medium, a translator traditionally gives exactly, or as near exactly as possible, what is being said, whereas an interpreter is less literal and gives the overall gist. A bit like transactional versus relational.

Hope this helps.
