摘要

Abstract

This paper examines the coping strategies employed in government interpreting within the context of Zhaoqing City's international engagements. Through qualitative analysis of real and simulated interpreting scenarios

the study identifies four categories of coping strategies: linguistic adaptation

cultural mediation

technical management

and psychological regulation. The research reveals that effective government interpreters serve not merely as linguistic experts but as active cultural mediators and communication facilitators. Findings suggest that successful interpreting in Zhaoqing's government contexts requires specialized training in local cultural knowledge

strategic thinking

and stress management.
