Is a: language mediation

Definition: Interpretation service used where one of the parties is deaf, hard-of-hearing or speech-impaired (mute).
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_interpretation

Explanation: In such cases the interpretation flow is normally within the same principal language, such as French Sign Language (FSL) to spoken French, Spanish Sign Language (SSL) to spoken Spanish, British Sign Language (BSL) to spoken English, and American Sign Language (ASL) also to spoken English (since BSL and ASL are completely distinct). ...With video interpreting, sign language interpreters work remotely with live video and audio feeds, so that the interpreter can see the deaf or mute party, converse with the hearing party and vice versa.

Is a: language mediation

Definition: The addition of textual versions of the dialog in films and television programs, usually displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtitle_(captioning)

Explanation: Subtitles can either be a form of written translation of a dialog in a foreign language, or a written rendering of the dialog in the same language, with or without added information to help viewers who are deaf and hard-of-hearing to follow the dialog, or people who cannot understand the spoken dialogue or who have accent recognition problems. Captioning is also used in for TV news and similar presentations on large TV screens mounted in public places (airports and the like) where it is difficult if not impossible to hear spoken sound.
