Nubian Interpreters in Burnaby
Nubian interpreters in Burnaby for refugee, medical and settlement settings, with the variety confirmed at booking rather than defaulting to Arabic.
Spoken Nubian is where the language itself matters, and the varieties differ: Nobiin and the Kenzi-Dongolawi group are not fully mutually intelligible, so we ask which variety and which side of the Egypt or Sudan border a speaker is from at booking. We confirm the client's preferred language and interpreting requirements before a refugee hearing so a Nubian interpreter of the matching variety is assigned rather than defaulting to Arabic.
Our Nubian interpreters attend IRB refugee hearings and IRCC interviews, hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and settlement meetings. Much of this is by phone or video, with in-person attendance in Burnaby where a matching interpreter is available.
For an in-person assignment in Burnaby we assign a Nubian 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.
Nubian Court, Medical and IRCC Interpreters in Burnaby
Nubian interpreters in Burnaby attend IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and hospital appointments, matched to Nobiin or the Kenzi-Dongolawi group and to the Egypt or Sudan side of the border.
Burnaby lies immediately east of Vancouver and is British Columbia's third largest city, home to major shopping, film production and technology employers around Metrotown and the Brentwood and Lougheed town centres. It is highly multilingual: English is the mother tongue of about 41 per cent of residents, while more than half report another first language, and the Chinese community, including Mandarin and Cantonese speakers, is the single largest group, alongside Korean, Tagalog and Punjabi speakers.
Simon Fraser University sits atop Burnaby Mountain and the British Columbia Institute of Technology is also based here, drawing international students and faculty. Burnaby Hospital operates under the Fraser Health authority, and the Provincial Court of British Columbia and the Supreme Court of British Columbia serve the area. Together these institutions, along with settlement agencies and local businesses, generate ongoing demand for translation and interpreting in the community's many languages.

About the Nubian Language
Nubian refers to a group of related languages spoken by perhaps 1 million people across northern Sudan and southern Egypt - the historical homeland of the ancient Nubian civilization, with a written tradition stretching back over a millennium. The major modern varieties include Nobiin, Dongolawi, and Kenzi. Nubian speakers in Canada are served through our national interpreter network; civil records from Sudan and Egypt are issued in Arabic, so translation usually runs from Arabic while the Nubian need is spoken.
