Full transcript
Since our last appointment, how has your mood been feeling day to day, and did the referral letter for the psychologist reach you already?
ډاکټر صاحب، هو زه لا هم د خپګان احساس کوم، او د یو شمېر ورځو راهیسې ښه خوب نه کوم. هغه لیک مې ترلاسه کړ، خو زه غواړم پوه شم چې د دې لیک وروسته به د سایکالوجست سره لومړی ملاقات څومره وخت ونیسي؟
The clinic usually books the first session within two to three weeks, though some psychologists in Toowoomba have shorter waiting lists depending on availability.
دوه درې اونۍ ډیر اوږد وخت دی، ځکه چې زه شپه ناوخته تر ناوخته ژاړم او هیڅ اراده نلرم چې کور څخه ووځم. که دومره انتظار وکاږم نو زه نه پوهیږم څنګه به دوام ورکړم.
While you wait, please call Beyond Blue any time, day or night, and we'll also arrange a safety plan together before you leave today.
ښه، دا به مرسته وکړي. مګر زه غواړم پوه شم چې تاسو ماته کومه درمل ورکوئ، او ایا دا درمل به د خوب ستونزو ته زیاتوالی راولي؟
I'll start you on a low dose of sertraline, fifty milligrams daily, and any drowsiness usually settles within the first ten days.
ښه، زه به دا درمل شروع کړم. مګر زه اوس هم شپه ناوخته ویښ پاتې کیږم؛ ایا کوم بل لار شته چې زما خوب ښه شي؟
Try avoiding screens for at least an hour before bed, keep a regular sleep time each night, and we'll review your progress again soon.
ښه، زه به دا هڅه وکړم. کله به زموږ بله ملاقات وي؟
Let's meet again in two weeks at Toowoomba Family Medical Centre, unless you feel worse before then, in which case please call us immediately.
ډیره مننه ډاکټر صاحب، زه به هرومرو دوه اونۍ وروسته راشم، او که وضعیت خرابه شي نو به سمدلاسه تاسو ته زنګ ووهم.
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.
- referral letter'د راجع کولو لیک' یا 'ریفرل لیټر' په توګه یې وژباړئ.
- beyond blueد سازمان نوم په انګلیسي ډول وساتئ: "Beyond Blue"، که وضاحت اړین وي ووایه "د رواني روغتیا ملاتړ سازمان دی".
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.
