Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that the term 'enteritis por Norovirus' is the preferred clinical terminology in Spanish. Avoid using 'debido a' as it is less precise in this context. Be cautious of colloquial terms that may arise in conversation, and stick to the glossary term in formal settings.

Example Sentences

Common Interpreter Mistakes
