Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mrs Lam. How have you been feeling this week, especially with the baby’s movements and any swelling in your legs?
呢排都幾好,不過今朝個BB郁得少咗啲,我有啲擔心,隻腳都腫咗少少。
Let's check your blood pressure first — it's 118 over 76, which is within the normal range for this stage of pregnancy.
咁就好,咁我而家就要驗尿呀?定係要留番第日先?
You'll do the urine test today, and we'll also book your glucose screening for 26 weeks, not any later than that.
好嘅,如果到26週嗰次驗出有問題,係咪要即刻入院呀?
Only if your doctor flags something urgent during today's visit; otherwise we'll simply refer you to Royal Hospital for Women for a routine follow-up scan next month.
咁如果到而家個BB都仲係郁得咁少,係咪要即刻去急症呀?
Yes, if the baby's movements don't pick up within the next hour, please go straight to the emergency department at the hospital, even if it's late at night.
明白喇,我而家就飲杯凍嘢,瞓低監住佢郁唔郁先。
Good idea. I'll also book you a follow-up appointment for next Thursday at 10:30 am with your regular midwife.
多謝你,如果之後都係咁,我會即刻去醫院,唔會等到聽日。
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- emergency department講「急症室」,呢個係廣東話常用而且貼切嘅講法。
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
