Full transcript
Welcome to Sunshine Hospital emergency department. Please sit here and tell me quickly what happened right before your son started struggling to breathe.
नमस्कार, माझा मुलगा शाळेतून आल्यावर क्रिकेट खेळत होता, अचानक त्याला श्वास घ्यायला त्रास होऊ लागला आणि खोकला वाढला. मी त्याला निळा इनहेलर दोनदा दिला, पण फरक पडला नाही.
How many puffs of his blue reliever puffer has he had today, and has he ever had a serious asthma attack or allergic reaction before?
आज त्याने पफ दोनदा घेतले, आधी कधी अशी गंभीर स्थिती झाली नव्हती. त्याला कोणत्याही गोष्टीची अॅलर्जी आहे असं आम्हाला माहित नाही, पण परागकणांचा हंगाम आहे आणि आजूबाजूला भरपूर धूळ होती.
His oxygen saturation is ninety-four percent, which is lower than normal. Are his lips turning blue, or does he seem unusually drowsy or confused?
नाही, त्याचे ओठ निळे झालेले नाहीत, पण तो जोरजोरात श्वास घेतोय आणि छातीत घट्टपणा जाणवतोय असं म्हणतोय. तो थोडा घाबरलेला दिसतोय.
We'll start a nebuliser treatment straight away and monitor him closely for twenty minutes. If his breathing improves, we'll reassess before deciding on next steps.
ठीक आहे, नेब्युलायझर द्या. मी त्याच्या शेजारी थांबू शकतो का? तो घाबरला आहे आणि मला वाटतं माझी उपस्थिती त्याला बरं वाटेल.
Yes, you're welcome to stay beside him throughout. We may also give a short course of steroid tablets for three days if his symptoms don't settle quickly.
हरकत नाही, गरज असेल तर गोळ्या द्या. तीन दिवस औषध घ्यावं लागलं तरी चालेल, पण त्याला लवकर बरं वाटावं एवढीच अपेक्षा आहे.
He shouldn't return to school until Thursday, and please avoid strenuous sport for a full week. Book a GP review soon for an updated asthma plan.
ठीक आहे, गुरुवारपर्यंत तो शाळेत जाणार नाही आणि आठवडाभर खेळणार नाही याची काळजी घेईन. आम्ही लवकरच जीपीकडे जाऊन दम्याची सुधारित योजना घेऊ.
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'इमर्जन्सी डिपार्टमेंट' असे उच्चारून सांगावे किंवा 'रुग्णालयाचा आपत्कालीन विभाग' असे स्पष्ट करावे.
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.
