The present study examines the applicability of the interpreting strategies proposed by Kohn and Kalina (1996) for rendering noun phrases and numbers from English into Arabic .The aim of the present study is to extract the employed interpreting strategies from a sample of authentic English speeches and compare them with their corresponding interpretation into Arabic. The data is extracted from a speech by the American president Joe Biden on March,11,2021 in which he talked about his administration’s steps to combat covid-19. The paralleled text analysis is adopted to identify the employed strategies.
