Full transcript
Tell me more about this headache—when did it start, how often does it happen, and how severe is the pain on a scale of one to ten?
Sakit kepala ini mula tiga minggu lepas, dan ia berlaku hampir setiap hari, terutamanya pada waktu pagi. Kalau nak ukur, mungkin tujuh daripada sepuluh.
Have you noticed any blurred vision, nausea, sensitivity to light, or weakness in your arms or legs?
Tidak ada kelemahan pada tangan atau kaki, tapi kadang-kadang penglihatan saya kabur dan saya rasa loya, terutamanya bila sakit sangat teruk.
I'd like to refer you for an MRI scan at Liverpool Hospital, just to check there's no underlying cause for these headaches.
Baiklah doktor. Berapa lama saya perlu tunggu untuk buat MRI ini, dan adakah ia akan dikenakan sebarang bayaran?
The wait is usually about ten days, and if I mark this referral as urgent, it will be bulk-billed, so you won't need to pay anything out of pocket.
Baguslah kalau tak kena bayar. Tapi sementara tunggu MRI, apakah tanda-tanda yang bermakna saya patut terus ke jabatan kecemasan?
If you get sudden vision loss, severe vomiting, the worst headache of your life, or difficulty speaking, go to emergency immediately.
Baik, saya faham. Boleh saya makan ubat tahan sakit macam panadol sementara tunggu MRI ni?
You can take paracetamol for the pain, but don't exceed eight tablets in twenty-four hours, and avoid ibuprofen if you have stomach ulcers.
Terima kasih banyak-banyak doktor, saya akan ikut nasihat awak dan berhati-hati dengan simptom-simptom tu.
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.
- out of pocketTerjemah sebagai 'kos yang ditanggung sendiri' atau 'bayaran poket sendiri'.
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.
