Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today. I've reviewed your resume, and there's a warehouse role at Bunnings in Dandenong that could suit you. Are you free for casual shifts?
ඔව්, මම දැනට වැඩක් නැතුව ඉන්නේ. ඒ නිසා casual shifts ගැන කිසිම අවුලක් නෑ. සතියකට පැය කීයක් වගේ වැඩ ලැබෙයිද?
Usually between fifteen and twenty-five hours a week, depending on demand. If you hold a current forklift licence, that could increase your hours and pay rate.
මට forklift licence එකක් නෑ. ඒත් මට වෙනස් වැඩකට උනත් උනන්දුයි. ඒක නැතුව මට මේ රස්සාව ගන්න බැරිද?
That's fine, the licence isn't compulsory for this role. I can book you an interview this Thursday at ten thirty at the Dandenong site.
හොඳයි, ගුරුවාරාදා දහයයි තිහට මම එනවා. ඒ දවසේ මම මොනවගේ ලේඛන අරන් එන්නද?
Please bring your passport, visa evidence, and a tax file number if you have one. Without valid work rights, we can't proceed with the placement.
මගේ visa එක වලංගුයි, work rights තියෙනවා. මම tax file number එකත් අරන් එන්නම්. Superannuation ගැනත් මට කියන්න පුළුවන්ද?
Yes, once you start, your employer pays superannuation into a fund you choose. Pay runs fortnightly through direct deposit, usually every second Wednesday.
හොඳයි. මට තියෙන්නේ Commonwealth Bank ගිණුමක්. ඒක ප්රමාණවත්ද, නැත්නම් වෙනම account එකක් ඕනද?
That account will work fine. If everything checks out at the interview, you could start within two weeks, working around twenty hours initially.
ඒක නියමයි! ස්තුතියි ඔබේ උදව්වට. මම ගුරුවාරාදා නියමිත වේලාවට එනවා.
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.
- tax file number"ටැක්ස් ෆයිල් නම්බර්" (TFN) ලෙස ඉංග්රීසි යෙදුමම භාවිතා කරන්න.
- superannuationවිභාගයේදී 'superannuation' යන ඉංග්රීසි වචනයම භාවිත කරන්න, අවශ්ය නම් 'විශ්රාම අරමුදල' කියා කෙටියෙන් පැහැදිලි කළ හැක.
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.
