Full transcript
Since your last appointment three weeks ago, how have you been feeling overall — any changes in your sleep, appetite, energy, or general mood lately?
ខ្ញុំគេងមិនសូវលក់ទេ តាំងពីបីសប្តាហ៍មុនមក ភ្ញាក់ភ្លាមៗនៅម៉ោងបីព្រឹករាល់យប់ ហើយចិត្តតែងតែព្រួយបារម្ភពីការងារ។
Have you had any thoughts of hurting yourself, or thoughts about not wanting to be here anymore, even briefly, since we last spoke?
ទេ ខ្ញុំមិនដែលគិតចង់ធ្វើបាបខ្លួនឯង ឬចង់បាត់ខ្លួនទេ គ្រាន់តែអស់កម្លាំងខ្លាំង ហើយអារម្មណ៍ធុញទ្រាន់។
I'd like to refer you to a psychologist under a Mental Health Care Plan, which allows up to six subsidised sessions before we review your progress together.
អរគុណច្រើន! ប៉ុន្តែតើតម្លៃប៉ុន្មាន? ខ្ញុំមិនមានធានារ៉ាប់រងឯកជនទេ ហើយខ្ញុំខ្លាចត្រូវសុំច្បាប់ច្រើនដងពីកន្លែងធ្វើការ។
If you have a valid referral from your GP, the clinic bulk bills, so there won't be any out-of-pocket cost for you at all.
ល្អណាស់ បើដូច្នេះខ្ញុំសុខចិត្តទៅជួប។ តើអាចណាត់ជួបនៅថ្ងៃណា និងម៉ោងប៉ុន្មានដែលងាយស្រួលសម្រាប់ខ្ញុំ?
I can offer Thursday at ten a.m. at Cabramatta Community Health Centre next week — does that time suit your current work schedule?
ថ្ងៃព្រហស្បតិ៍ម៉ោងដប់ព្រឹកគឺសមរម្យសម្រាប់ខ្ញុំ។ ប៉ុន្តែសម្រាប់លើកក្រោយ តើអាចមានអ្នកបកប្រែភាសាខ្មែរជួយខ្ញុំដែរឬទេ?
Yes, I've already booked a Khmer interpreter through TIS National for that session. If you feel worse beforehand, please call the mental health line anytime, day or night.
អរគុណច្រើនណាស់សម្រាប់ជំនួយ។ ខ្ញុំនឹងចាំលេខទូរស័ព្ទបន្ទាន់នេះទុក ហើយនឹងទៅជួបតាមកាលវិភាគ។
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.
- mental health care planអាចនិយាយថា "ផែនការថែទាំសុខភាពផ្លូវចិត្ត ដែលចេញដោយគ្រូពេទ្យ ដើម្បីទទួលការបញ្ចុះថ្លៃលើការប្រឹក្សាចិត្តសាស្ត្រ"។
- tis nationalរក្សាទុកជា "TIS National" ជាភាសាអង់គ្លេស ព្រោះជាឈ្មោះអង្គភាពជាក់លាក់។
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.
