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

Hakka is a distinctive Chinese language with roots tracing back over a thousand years. Spoken by millions of Hakka people primarily in southern China and across diasporic communities worldwide, Hakka features its own unique phonetic and grammatical structures that set it apart from other Chinese dialects. Traditionally passed down through rich oral traditions and written in Chinese characters, the language embodies a resilient cultural identity that has survived centuries of migration and change.

Jeenie’s Hakka interpreters are dedicated to ensuring that speakers of Hakka can access vital services in settings such as healthcare, legal proceedings, and community engagements. By providing fast, accurate, and culturally sensitive interpretation, Jeenie not only bridges communication gaps but also helps preserve the unique linguistic heritage of the Hakka language in today’s global landscape.

Hakka culture is renowned for its strong emphasis on community, resilience, and rich traditions. With a history marked by migration and adaptation, Hakka people have maintained vibrant customs through unique festivals, traditional music, dance, and craftsmanship—ranging from intricate embroidery to distinctive architectural styles like the traditional tulou (earthen communal buildings). These cultural expressions have long served as a unifying force among Hakka communities and continue to define their collective identity.

At Jeenie, our Hakka interpreters serve as cultural ambassadors who not only facilitate clear communication but also help convey the depth and richness of Hakka heritage. By ensuring respectful and effective interactions, Jeenie supports Hakka communities in sharing their stories, accessing essential services, and preserving their vibrant cultural legacy in a modern, interconnected world.

How much does Hakka interpreting cost?

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

We get this question a lot.

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

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

How are Hakka 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.
