The theoretical part presents the definitions of simultaneous interpreting, interpreting studies, interpreting strategies and a detailed description of different types of corpora, their development in time, corpus linguistics in connection with interpreting, corpus typology and also a detailed description of EPTIC-SI, an intermodal corpus, which is used in the analysis. The final section of the theoretical part deals with the use of a corpus-based approach in the analysis of connectors, and with the definition of English and Slovene adversative connectors.
