Full transcript
Take a seat, Mr. Volkov — tell me exactly when this back pain started and what you were doing at the time, please.
Она началась около десяти дней назад, когда я поднимал тяжёлые коробки на складе в Бендиго.
On a scale of one to ten, how bad is the pain right now, and does it spread down your leg or cause any numbness?
Сейчас примерно семь из десяти. Боль отдаёт в левую ногу, но онемения нет.
I'll check your spine's movement and reflexes now, then we'll go through the results together carefully — this shouldn't take more than twenty minutes.
Хорошо. А рентген нужен, чтобы понять, что случилось со спиной?
You won't need an X-ray today unless we find warning signs like weakness, fever, or loss of bladder control during the exam.
Понятно. А что можно принимать от боли, пока это не пройдёт?
Paracetamol and ice for the first few days should help a lot, along with gentle stretching — please avoid heavy lifting for the next two weeks.
Хорошо, но моя работа на складе в Бендиго требует поднимать ящики каждый день. Мне нужна справка для работодателя?
I'll write you a medical certificate covering five days off lifting duties, and we'll review your progress again next Thursday at the clinic.
Спасибо большое, доктор. Буду отдыхать и приду в четверг на осмотр.

Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room 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. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
