Kemi një takim me Alanin dhe me një përkthyes të martën më 16 shtator në 10 të mëngjesit.

In Albanian would be best to say "përkthyes" (translator) than "përkthyes gojor" (oral translator), since I do not think it would make sense for an Albanian speaker.

I wanted to add that in special cases it makes sense to say \"përkthyes gojor\", (for example when you really need to emphasize the difference between an interpreter and a translator), but for this case, this difference is not that important and does not change the meaning of what you want to convey. Therefore, I am not against the term used above \"përkthyes gojor\", I am only trying to give another version that makes more sense to the Albanian speaker in this particular case. Best, Borana.
