Need a Lunda interpreter in Nanaimo? Prism Linguistics arranges professional Lunda interpreters for court and tribunal hearings, hospital and clinic appointments, IRCC interviews and police or community meetings, on site in Nanaimo or by telephone and video, with a fixed quote before you book.
Our Lunda interpreters work in refugee, immigration and settlement settings in Nanaimo, and because the language spans three countries we ask about home area and gender preference at intake.
Interpreting is the more likely need, in an IRB refugee hearing, an IRCC interview or a settlement or medical appointment. English, Portuguese and French are the languages of the records, not of the testimony, so we confirm the speaker's preferred language and the needs of the hearing or appointment before it and assign a Lunda interpreter rather than assume an official language will do.
Lunda is spoken across three countries with some regional variation, and we ask about home area and gender preference at intake. We assign in person in Nanaimo where possible and otherwise by phone and video.
For an in-person assignment in Nanaimo we assign a Lunda interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly.
Lunda interpreters for Nanaimo attend IRB refugee hearings, IRCC interviews and medical appointments, assigned in Lunda rather than defaulting to an official language, on site where an interpreter is near or by phone or video.
Nanaimo is the largest city on Vancouver Island's east coast and a main ferry and floatplane gateway between the mainland and the island, with an economy built on shipping, forestry, tourism, health care and education. English is the first language of the large majority of residents, but the Harbour City is becoming more diverse, with a growing number of residents whose mother tongue is not English, including Punjabi, Tagalog, Chinese and Korean speakers settling in the region.
Vancouver Island University is based in Nanaimo, and Nanaimo Regional General Hospital operates under the Island Health authority. The Supreme Court of British Columbia and the Provincial Court of British Columbia both sit in Nanaimo and require interpreters for people who speak little English. Settlement agencies, clinics, courts and local businesses rely on professional translation and interpreting to support residents and immigrants arriving through IRCC.

Lunda is a Bantu language spoken by around 400,000 people in northwestern Zambia, southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and parts of Angola. Documents from this region are typically issued in English (Zambia), Portuguese (Angola) or French (DRC) and routed accordingly, with Lunda itself most often needed for interpreting.
Yes, in person where an interpreter is within reach and otherwise by phone or video. We ask about home area, since Lunda spans Zambia, Angola and the DRC with some regional variation, and a claim can turn on wording.
