French is a Romance language of the Indo-European family. It descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire, as did all Romance languages.
Translation deciphers meaning of the written word from one language to another. Interpretation conveys meaning of the spoken word from one language to another. The common thread is language. However, the two professions require very different skills.
