Full transcript
Mr Farah, thanks for coming in today. How has your chest pain been since you started the aspirin and GTN spray last week, and has it changed?
Waan ku qaatay dawooyinkii aad ii qortay, laakiin weli waxaan dareemaa xanuun yar oo laabta ah marka aan fuulo jaranjarada. Waxay dhacdaa hal ama laba jeer usbuucii.
Does the tightness ease when you rest, or does it stay the same even when you stop walking or lie down?
Haa, marka aan istaago oo nasto, xanuunka wuu yaraadaa dhowr daqiiqo gudahood, laakiin marka aan hawl adag qabto ayuu soo noqdaa.
We need to book you in for a stress test at Flinders Medical Centre, on Thursday at half past ten in the morning.
Hagaag, mahadsanid. Imtixaanka stress test-ka, ma yeelan doonaa wax cusub oo aan ogaanayn? Miyaan u baahanahay in aan diyaariyo wax gaar ah?
Don't eat anything for four hours before the test, but keep taking your regular heart medication as usual, with a small sip of water.
Haddii xanuunku iga soo noqdo aroorta imtixaanka ka hor, ma sii isticmaali karaa buufinta GTN-ga, ama ma joojiyaa dawada intii aan sugayay?
If chest pain returns, use the spray up to three times, waiting five minutes between doses. Call triple zero if it doesn't ease within ten minutes.
Waan ku faraxsanahay caawinta. Miyay suurtogal tahay in qoyskaygu ila yimaadaan ballanta?
Yes, one family member is welcome to come with you, as long as they check in at reception before your appointment time.
Waad ku mahadsan tahay caddaynta. Waan la soo socon doonaa xaaskayga si ay ila timaado ballanta Khamiista.
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.
- triple zeroKu dhawaaq 'triple zero' ama sheeg lambarka '000', maadaama ay tahay lambar rasmi ah oo aan la beddeli karin.
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.

How the test works
Practice dialogue written to the CCL specification (two speakers, segments of 35 words or fewer, about 300 words). It is a practice text, not a NAATI test paper, and the AI score is this site's estimate, not a NAATI result. All Somali dialogues · All languages
