You are using a non-traditional definition of interpreted. With compiled code the translation into machine code is done completely before execution. In interpreted languages, pieces of code are translated and then executed on the fly. For this reason compiled programs are faster, but must be compiled for a particular platform.
If you want to get really technical, by your definition assembly is interpreted as well. Assembly code will be translated from human readable text to 1's and 0's for the processor.
