Department, Faculty of Letters and Fine Arts. Sebelas Maret University.

This study focuses on the analysis of interpreting quality in consecutive
interpretation entitled Tentang Ester in El-Shaday Church.
This study is a descriptive qualitative research. There are two kinds of data
used in this research. The first data are all sentences in the video of consecutive
interpretation entitled Tentang Ester in El-Shaday church and the second data is
gained from the score of questionnaire. This study employs total sampling and
purposive sampling. The total sampling is used to collect the spoken data and
purposive sampling is used to select the informants to fulfill the questionnaire.
The whole data (318 data), 53, 45% were categorized in classification A
accurate, 27,67% were categorized in classification B which is less accurate, and
18,88% were categorized in classification C namely inaccurate. And the fluency
or consecutive interpreter, 275 (86,47%) data were interpreted fluently and 17
(5,35%) data were less fluently interpreted and 27 (8,18%) data were not
interpreted fluently. It means that more than 50% percent of the data are fluent

The research finds that the factor that affects the accuracy and fluency of
the interpretation is mostly non-technical factor. They are the stamina of the
interpreter and the speed and fluency of the original utterance.
