Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mrs Fonseca. Could you please walk me through exactly what happened to your car outside Wollongong Central on Thursday afternoon, step by step?
Eu estacionei o carro perto da entrada da Wollongong Central por volta das três da tarde. Quando voltei, o para-choque estava todo amassado e não havia ninguém por perto.
Do you remember exactly what time you parked, and roughly how long the car sat there before you actually noticed the damage?
Fiquei dentro do shopping por cerca de quarenta e cinco minutos, então não vi o exato momento da colisão.
Did you happen to notice the colour, make or model of the other vehicle, or perhaps catch any part of its number plate?
Não vi o carro, mas uma vizinha me contou que era uma camionete branca, talvez uma Toyota Hilux.
Is there any CCTV covering that section of the car park, or did anyone standing nearby actually witness the collision happen?
Acho que há câmeras na entrada do estacionamento, mas não sei se elas cobrem aquela área específica.
I'll register this as an official hit-and-run report for NSW Police. You'll receive an event number to give your insurer.
Entendo. Quanto tempo normalmente demora até a seguradora entrar em contato depois que eu registrar esse número?
That depends on your insurer's internal process, but if we can't identify the driver, the case may remain open indefinitely.
Está bem, muito obrigada pela ajuda. Vou avisar minha seguradora hoje mesmo e aguardar novidades sobre o caso.
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.
- event numberTraduzir como 'número de ocorrência' ou manter 'event number' se o contexto for policial específico.
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.
