Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Ms. Laine. Can you tell me what's been happening with your sleep and mood over the past three weeks?
En ole nukkunut kunnolla lähes kolmeen viikkoon, siitä asti kun menetin työpaikkani kaupasta. Itken usein, enkä jaksa edes laittaa ruokaa itselleni.
Given how exhausted you sound, I need to ask directly: have you had any thoughts of harming yourself, or is that not something you're experiencing right now?
En, en ole ajatellut satuttaa itseäni, mutta tunnen oloni toivottomaksi ja hyvin väsyneeksi koko ajan.
That's helpful to know. I'd like to refer you to a psychologist here in Ballarat for six sessions under a Medicare mental health care plan.
Kuulostaa hyvältä. Onko tämä minulle ilmaista, ja kuinka kauan joudun odottamaan ensimmäistä aikaa psykologille?
It's bulk-billed under your plan, so there's no out-of-pocket cost, and the wait is about ten days for your first appointment.
Se helpottaa vähän. Täytyykö minun ottaa lääkkeitä, vai voisinko yrittää ensin ilman niitä?
Your GP can prescribe medication if it's needed, and we'll review together how you're going again in about two weeks.
Ymmärrän. Riittääkö kahden viikon todistus, vai pitäisikö minun kertoa työnantajalle enemmän tilanteestani?
I'll give you a medical certificate covering two weeks off work, and then we'll reassess everything at your next appointment together.
Kiitos paljon avusta. Tulen mielelläni takaisin kahden viikon päästä, kun tilanne on ehkä jo parempi.
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.
- medicareSano vain 'Medicare' sellaisenaan, se on erisnimi eikä sitä käännetä.
- mental health care planSelitä lyhyesti: 'GP:n laatima mielenterveyden hoitosuunnitelma, joka mahdollistaa Medicare-tuetut terapiakäynnit'.
- medical certificateKäännä 'lääkärintodistus'.
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.
