My job requires me to speak to clients who don't speak English. Whenever one of these clients calls, we conference in an interpreter to translate between us. Earlier this week, I had a burly Texan-cowboy sounding gentleman translating for a frantic Spanish-speaking female. Standard procedure, except for the fact that he was giving me the word-for-word translation. This means I had this gruff masculine voice telling me "I need my Medi-Cal for my birth control" & "Do I need to re-apply if I get pregnant?" Considering how easily he made his voice sound as frantic as the client's, I get the feeling he wasn't too conscious of what he was saying to another male.
