"Our interpreter was wonderful; she assisted with calling multiple Chuukese-speaking patients. She was so kind and made sure our patient understood and were able to communicate back."

"Marcia was absolutely wonderful and professional. Not only did she help the patient, she helped me understand the order of the patients name to correct it in the system. Probably one of the best interpreters I’ve ever had!"

Chuukese is the most widely spoken language in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), with over 50,000 speakers, primarily in the Chuuk State and among Micronesian communities worldwide. As an Austronesian language, Chuukese has a unique sentence structure and pronunciation that set it apart from other Micronesian languages. While English is also an official language in FSM, Chuukese remains the dominant language for daily communication, government, and cultural traditions.

Chuukese includes regional dialects and cultural expressions that can make translation challenging, especially in professional or high-stakes situations. Whether you need assistance in healthcare, legal matters, business, or education, Jeenie’s professional Chuukese interpreters ensure accurate and culturally respectful communication, helping you connect with Chuukese-speaking communities effectively.

Chuukese culture is deeply rooted in family, respect, and community values. Elders are highly respected, and social interactions often emphasize politeness and indirect communication. Hospitality plays a central role in daily life, with food and communal gatherings being key aspects of Chuukese traditions. Traditional navigation, fishing, and storytelling remain important cultural practices passed down through generations.

Understanding Chuukese customs—such as greetings, social hierarchies, and nonverbal communication—is essential for building trust and strong relationships. A simple gesture or phrase can carry significant meaning depending on the context. With Jeenie’s expert Chuukese interpreters, you get more than just language translation—you get cultural expertise, ensuring smooth and meaningful communication in any situation.

How much does Chuukese interpreting cost?

Across the industry, Chuukese interpreting is typically charged on a per minute rate. With Jeenie, our rates are some of the best in the industry. Your per minute rate will depend on which Jeenie plan you have. See our Pricing page for more details.

Note: Jeenie offers the same rate for Video and Audio-only. Why?
Because we know that video sessions get better outcomes. Video captures non-verbal cues (75% – 93% of most interactions) – making it more efficient and more effective in critical interactions.

Are Chuukese translators and Chuukese interpreters the same thing?

We get this question a lot.

Chuukese interpreters help with spoken interactions. They are present in-the-moment to help people with different languages to communicate (Chuukese into English and English into Chuukese). Interpreters serve as communication and are experts at cultural nuance. They help to ensure that both parties understand each other.

Chuukese translators help with written documents. Translators convert written text into the needed language.

How are Chuukese interpreters on Jeenie different from other services?

Jeenie attracts the best interpreters in the world. Truly. We constantly hear from clients that they have NEVER had such amazing interpreters on other services. That skill saves our clients time and minimizes their risk of costly miscommunications. Here's how we excel at quality:

We treat interpreters well.
Jeenie offers linguists great compensation (often the best in the industry), work-life flexibility, ongoing learning to improve their craft, and our heart-felt respect. For this and many other reasons, the best interpreters want to be on the Jeenie platform.

We have extremely high standards.
Unlike most of our competitors who outsource huge chunks of their interpreting needs, Jeenie has created a vetted network of global talent who are active within our platform. This gives us direct oversight on quality and skills assessment. Jeenie interpreters must pass our rigorous skills evaluations, have several years of experience, maintain 4.0 average client rating, and pass ongoing quality tests.
