Connect With Experienced French Interpreters

Access qualified French interpreters 24/7 for healthcare, community, and other communication needs.

Why French Interpretation Matters

French is the 7th most common language spoken by limited English proficient (LEP) individuals in the U.S. As demand grows across healthcare, legal, and public services, access to qualified French interpreters is essential for clear communication, better outcomes, and equal access.

1.18 Million French Speakers

Approximately 1.18 million people in the United States speak French. Many rely on interpretation to fully understand critical information and services.

Compliance Requirements

Federal and state regulations, including Title VI, ACA Section 1557, and CLAS standards, require organizations to provide meaningful language access for LEP individuals.

Interpreting Affects Outcomes

When language barriers go unaddressed, important details are missed. Professional interpretation helps reduce risk and support informed decision-making.

French FAQs

Am I legally required to provide a French interpreter?

Yes. Federally funded organizations must provide qualified interpreters for LEP individuals under Title VI and ACA Section 1557, including French speakers.

Where is French primarily spoken in the U.S.?

French is primarily spoken in Louisiana and New England (especially Maine), with smaller but notable populations in Florida, New York, and California.

Is French the same as French Creole?

No. The French and French Creole languages – such as Haitian Creole – are related but distinct. While French Creole languages may borrow vocabulary from French, they have distinct grammar, sentence structure, and pronunciation. A French Creole interpreter is typically not qualified to interpret French, and vice versa.

How much does French interpreting cost?

Pricing varies depending on the type of service (video, phone, or AI), volume, and whether you choose to pay-as-you-go or go for a subscription plan. Because needs vary between clients, we don’t publish flat rates – instead, we provide a flexible subscription model that enables you to get tailored solutions based on your goals and preferences.

How are Boostlingo's French interpreting services better than others?

We combine a large global interpreter with an average response time under 15 seconds with the flexiblibility of on-demand phone, video or AI delivery. This helps you balance cost, speed, and quality.

Does Boostlingo support French interpreting for languages other than English?

Yes. Besides French ↔ English, Boostlingo’s global interpreter network supports more than 300 languages, allowing you to access French interpreting services with other language pairs like French ↔ Spanish, French ↔ Haitian Creole, or French ↔ Arabic, to name a few.

How do I become a French interpreter for Boostlingo?
