Full transcript
Thanks for coming in with your father today. Before we go further, could you tell me what changes you've noticed in his memory or behaviour recently?
ଗତ କିଛି ମାସ ଧରି ବାପା ବାରମ୍ବାର ଏକା ପ୍ରଶ୍ନ ପଚାରୁଛନ୍ତି, ଆଉ ଗତ ସପ୍ତାହରେ ସେ ଘର ପାଖ ରାସ୍ତାରେ ମଧ୍ୟ ବିଭ୍ରାନ୍ତ ହୋଇ ରାସ୍ତା ଭୁଲିଗଲେ।
Has he ever gotten lost somewhere familiar, like his own street, or repeated the same question within a few minutes, even when reminded?
ହଁ, ଗତ ସପ୍ତାହରେ ସେ ତାଙ୍କର ନାତିର ନାମ ମଧ୍ୟ ମନେ ପକାଇ ପାରିଲେ ନାହିଁ, ଯଦିଓ ପିଲାଟି ପ୍ରତିଦିନ ତାଙ୍କ ସାଙ୍ଗରେ ଥାଏ।
We'll book him for a full cognitive test, which usually takes about forty-five minutes, plus a referral to a neurologist at Flinders Medical Centre for further review.
ସେହି ପରୀକ୍ଷାରେ କଣ ପଚରାଯିବ? ବାପାଙ୍କୁ ଏହା ପାଇଁ କୌଣସି ପ୍ରସ୍ତୁତି ଆବଶ୍ୟକ କି, ଯେମିତି ଉପାସ କରିବା କି ଔଷଧ ବନ୍ଦ କରିବା?
It's mostly memory, attention and simple problem-solving questions, nothing painful. There's also a free national helpline through Dementia Australia offering support, seven days a week.
ଏହି ହେଲ୍ପଲାଇନ୍ କଣ ମାଗଣା? ସେମାନେ ଓଡ଼ିଆରେ ସାହାଯ୍ୟ କରିପାରିବେ କି, ନା କେବଳ ଇଂରାଜୀରେ କଥା ହେବେ?
Yes, it's completely free, funded by the government, and they can arrange an interpreter, including Odia, if you call ahead and request one.
ଆମେ କଣ ବାପାଙ୍କର ବର୍ତ୍ତମାନ ଖାଉଥିବା ସମସ୍ତ ଔଷଧର ତାଲିକା ସାଙ୍ଗରେ ଆଣିବା ଉଚିତ?
Yes, please bring a full list of his current medications, along with any recent blood test results or scans, if you have them.
ଠିକ୍ ଅଛି, ଆମେ ତାଲିକା ଓ ରକ୍ତ ପରୀକ୍ଷାର ରିପୋର୍ଟ ମଧ୍ୟ ସାଙ୍ଗରେ ଆଣିବୁ। ଧନ୍ୟବାଦ, ଡାକ୍ତର, ଆପଣଙ୍କ ସହାୟତା ପାଇଁ।
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.

How the test works
Practice dialogue written to the CCL specification (two speakers, segments of 35 words or fewer, about 300 words). It is a practice text, not a NAATI test paper, and the AI score is this site's estimate, not a NAATI result. All Odia dialogues · All languages
