Full transcript
Let's review how your weight management plan at Fairfield Community Health Centre has progressed since we last met three weeks ago, before we plan today's session.
ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್, ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಸುಧಾರಣೆ ಆಗಿದೆ, ಸುಮಾರು ಒಂದೂವರೆ ಕೆಜಿ ತೂಕ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾಗಿದೆ, ಆದರೆ ಸಂಜೆ ಸಿಹಿ ತಿನ್ನುವ ಆಸೆ ಇನ್ನೂ ಬರುತ್ತಿದೆ.
That's encouraging progress. Can you walk me through what your typical meals and exercise routine look like on a normal working day, including snacks?
ನಾನು ಬೆಳಿಗ್ಗೆ ವಾಕಿಂಗ್ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇನೆ, ಮಧ್ಯಾಹ್ನ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಎಣ್ಣೆಯ ಊಟ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇನೆ, ಆದರೆ ಮುಂದಿನ ತಿಂಗಳಿಂದ ನನ್ನ ಕೆಲಸದ ಶಿಫ್ಟ್ ಬದಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಪ್ರತಿ ಬುಧವಾರ ಇಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಬರಲು ಆಗದಿದ್ದರೆ ನಾನೇನು ಮಾಡಬೇಕು?
If Wednesdays don't suit your new shift, we can move your appointment to Friday afternoons after two, or offer a telehealth review instead.
ಅದು ತುಂಬಾ ಸಹಾಯಕವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ, ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್. ತೂಕ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡಲು ಯಾವುದಾದರೂ ಔಷಧಿ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದೇ?
There are medications we can discuss with your GP. Before that, has anyone checked your blood pressure or mentioned any heart problems recently?
ಹೌದು, ಕಳೆದ ವಾರ ನನ್ನ ರಕ್ತದೊತ್ತಡ ನೂರಾ ಮೂವತ್ತೈದು ಮೇಲೆ ತೊಂಬತ್ತು ಇತ್ತು, ಆದರೆ ಹೃದಯ ಸಂಬಂಧಿ ಯಾವುದೇ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆ ಇಲ್ಲ.
That reading is a little high, so I'll refer you to Liverpool Hospital's cardiology clinic and aim for half a kilogram loss weekly.
ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ಮೆಡಿಕೇರ್ ಮೂಲಕ ಖರ್ಚು ಕಡಿಮೆ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆಯೇ, ಅಥವಾ ನಾನು ಪೂರ್ತಿ ಹಣ ಕೊಡಬೇಕೇ?
With a GP Management Plan through Medicare, several visits are subsidised, but you'll still need your GP's referral before the cardiology appointment.
ಸರಿ, ನಾನು ಈ ವಾರವೇ ನನ್ನ ಜಿಪಿಯನ್ನು ಭೇಟಿ ಮಾಡಿ ರೆಫರಲ್ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತೇನೆ. ತುಂಬಾ ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್.
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.
- medicare'Medicare' ಎಂಬ ಪದವನ್ನು ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಇಂಗ್ಲಿಷ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಬೇಕು, ಇದು ಒಂದು ನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟ ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಯೋಜನೆಯ ಹೆಸರು.
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.
