• electronically inputting information into the CPU through at least one imputing device operatively associated with the CPU;
• said inputting device selected from the group consisting of a touch screen, touch pad, screen pad, keypad, keyboard, keys, buttons, electronic mouse, audible input, bluetooth, verbal input device, microphone, transmitter, electronic mouse, optical scanner, card reader, scanner, streaming device, audio tape, video tape, computer disc (CD), digital video disc (DVD), universal serial bus (USB) device, and flash drive;
• visually displaying and viewing indicia on at least one display operatively associated with the CPU;
• said display selected from the group consisting of a screen, touch screen, touchpad and monitor;
• said indicia selected from the group consisting of one or more avatars, text, words, numbers, alpha numeric images, symbols, logos, designs, animation, black indicia, colored indicia, information images, videos, graphics, flags, globes, country names, country codes, country pictures, maps, characters, cartoons, graphics, moving graphics, video clips, photographs, interactive games, electronic games, patient data information, data files, patient files, colors, vehicle colors, medications, and combinations of any of the preceding;
• electronically recognizing the person's language from a person's communications selected from the group consisting of voice, speech, voice messages, on-line communications, off-line conversations, verbal communications, discussions, conferences, responses, replies, electronic communications, and sound;
• electronically comparing the person's language to the host language in the CPU;
• electronically translating the person's language into the host language in the CPU if the person's language is different than the host language;
• transmitting electronic communications in the person's language from the CPU to the interviewee, said electronic communications selected from the group consisting of electronically synchronized speech, visual communications, questions, responses, interrogations, interviews, sound, speech, words, discussions, electronic menu driven communications, interactive verbal communications and combinations thereof;
• and
• providing an audit trail by printing said electronic translations and said electronic communications in both the host language and the person's language on a printer hard wired or operatively connected by wireless to the CPU.

An interactive electronic communications process for use in a translation station or other places, comprising:

• providing a computer system with a printer, at least one inputting device, and dual displays operatively connected by hard wiring or wireless to a central processing unit (CPU) for interaction between a host comprising an interviewer and a person comprising an interviewee, said CPU selected from the group consisting of a computer, laptop computer, desktop computer, portable computer, microprocessor, tablet computer, wireless computer, wired computer, netbook, internet communications device, portable networking device, electronic communications device, network communications device, cloud network communications device, electronic subscriber device, and combinations of any of the preceding;
• said dual displays comprising side-by-side laterally spaced displays selected from the group consisting of a screen, touch screen, touchpad, monitor and combinations of any of the preceding;
• each inputting device selected from the group consisting of a keypad, retractable keypad, screen pad, touch pad, keyboard, retractable keyboard, keys, buttons, and electronic mouse;
• electronically inputting information from the person comprising the interviewee in the interviewee's language through the inputting device to the CPU;
• electronically translating the inputting information in the CPU from the interviewee into the language of a host comprising an interviewer if the interviewee's language is different than the interviewer's language;
• visually displaying and electronically transmitting an electronic animated avatar from the CPU on one of the dual displays with lip synchronized speech in the interviewee's language, the avatar being modeled from human beings from the interviewee's country;
• visually displaying electronic visual communications from the interviewer to the interviewee in the interviewee's language on one of the dual displays, said visual communications comprising indicia selected from the group consisting of one or more text, words, numbers, alpha numeric images, logos, designs, images, videos, video clips, graphics, flags, countries, maps, globe, country names, country codes, animation, black indicia, colored indicia, pictures, information, characters, cartoons, graphics, moving graphics, photographs, interactive games, electronic games, patient data information, data files, patient files, colors, vehicle colors, medications, and combinations of any of the preceding;
• and
• providing an audit trail by printing said electronic visual communications from the printer in both the interviewee's language and the interviewer's language.
