Language Experts and Cultural Ambassadors

Jeenie interpreters are more than linguists, they help others to navigate cultural differences and understand unique tonal and visual cues that non-native speakers often miss. They’re communication experts.

About the Dinka Language

Dinka is a Nilotic language spoken by over 4 million people, primarily in South Sudan, where it is one of the most widely spoken languages. It has several dialects, including Rek, Agar, Bor, Padang, and Malual, which can vary significantly in pronunciation and vocabulary. As a tonal language, the meaning of words in Dinka can change based on tone, making accurate interpretation essential for clear communication.

Although English is the official language of South Sudan, many Dinka speakers prefer communicating in their native language, especially in rural areas. Whether for healthcare, legal matters, business, or humanitarian aid, Jeenie’s professional Dinka interpreters provide accurate and culturally sensitive communication, helping bridge language barriers effectively.

About Dinka Culture

Dinka culture is deeply rooted in pastoral traditions, family values, and oral storytelling. Cattle hold immense social and economic importance, often symbolizing wealth, status, and community bonds. Traditional ceremonies, including initiation rites, weddings, and naming ceremonies, are significant in Dinka society, reinforcing a strong sense of identity and belonging.

Respect and hierarchy play a crucial role in Dinka social interactions, with elders and community leaders receiving particular deference. Greetings, handshakes, and eye contact all carry cultural significance. Understanding Dinka customs, traditions, and social etiquette can greatly enhance communication. With Jeenie’s expert Dinka interpreters, you get more than just translation—you get cultural expertise, ensuring smooth and respectful interactions in any setting.

FAQs

How much does Dinka interpreting cost?

Across the industry, Dinka 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 Dinka translators and Dinka interpreters the same thing?

We get this question a lot.

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

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

How are Dinka 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.
