Mr Behera, thank you for coming in today. I'd like to walk you through your father's pain management plan and explain what might happen over the next few days at home.

Son

ଧନ୍ୟବାଦ, ନର୍ସ। କିନ୍ତୁ ମୋର ବାପାଙ୍କ ଯନ୍ତ୍ରଣା ଦିନକୁ ଦିନ ବଢୁଛି, ମୁଁ ବହୁତ ଚିନ୍ତିତ ଅଛି। ସେ ଆଉ କେତେ ଦିନ ଏମିତି କଷ୍ଟ ପାଇବେ?

SEGMENT 3 · ENGLISH · 22 WORDS
Nurse

We've started a syringe driver giving him continuous morphine, plus an extra dose every two hours if the pain breaks through suddenly.

SEGMENT 4 · ODIA · 28 WORDS
Son

ଏହା ଶୁଣି ମୋତେ ଟିକିଏ ସାନ୍ତ୍ୱନା ମିଳିଲା। କିନ୍ତୁ ଏହି ଔଷଧ ଦେଲେ ସେ ଅଧିକ ଢୁଳୁଆ ହୋଇଯିବେ କି? ମୁଁ ଚାହେଁ ସେ ଶେଷ ସମୟରେ ଆମ ସହିତ କଥାବାର୍ତ୍ତା କରିପାରନ୍ତୁ।

SEGMENT 5 · ENGLISH · 23 WORDS
Nurse

We won't increase the dose unless the palliative care doctor reviews him first, so he stays comfortable without becoming overly sedated or confused.

SEGMENT 6 · ODIA · 18 WORDS
Son

ବୁଝିଲି। ତେବେ ଆମେ କେଉଁ ଲକ୍ଷଣଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଉପରେ ଧ୍ୟାନ ଦେବା ଉଚିତ, ଯାହା ଦେଖି ଆମେ ବୁଝିପାରିବା ଯେ ତାଙ୍କ ଅବସ୍ଥା ବଦଳୁଛି?

SEGMENT 7 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS
Nurse

Watch for slower, irregular breathing, cooler hands and feet, and reduced appetite. A Silver Chain nurse will visit twice daily to monitor him closely.

SEGMENT 8 · ODIA · 27 WORDS
Son

ଧନ୍ୟବାଦ। ଯଦି ରାତିରେ ହଠାତ୍ କିଛି ହୋଇଯାଏ, ଆମେ କାହାକୁ ଡାକିବା? ଆମେ ଚାହୁଁଛୁ ସେ ଘରେ ରହି ଶାନ୍ତିରେ ରୁହନ୍ତୁ, ଅସ୍ପତାଳକୁ ପୁଣି ନ ନିଆଯାଉ।

SEGMENT 9 · ENGLISH · 22 WORDS
Nurse

There's a 24-hour palliative care line you can call anytime, and a community nurse can usually visit within an hour if needed.

Son

ଆମେ ପରିବାର ସଦସ୍ୟ ରାତିରେ ତାଙ୍କ ପାଖରେ ରହିପାରିବୁ କି? ଆମର କିଛି ପାରମ୍ପାରିକ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରିବାର ଅଛି, ସେ ସମୟରେ।

SEGMENT 11 · ENGLISH · 23 WORDS
Nurse

Of course, family members can stay overnight, and we can arrange a hospital chaplain or spiritual support if that would help your family.

SEGMENT 12 · ODIA · 19 WORDS
Son

ଏହା ଆମ ପାଇଁ ବହୁତ ସାହାଯ୍ୟକାରୀ। ଆପଣଙ୍କ ଯତ୍ନ ପାଇଁ ଧନ୍ୟବାଦ, ଆମେ ଏବେ ଟିକିଏ ନିଶ୍ଚିନ୍ତ ଅନୁଭବ କରୁଛୁ।

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.

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.
