It's not interpreted vs compiled, it's static/strong vs dynamic/weak. These just usually happen to fall along the interpreted vs compiled dichotomy.

But, for instance, IronPython and IronRuby are compiled, yet dynamic, and GHCi is a Haskell interpreter that runs an extremely strong/static language.
