Full transcript
Thanks for coming in, Mr Osman. Can you tell me exactly what happened outside Westfield Wollongong around 9:45 pm on Thursday night?
Waxaa dhacay saddex nin oo aniga igu weeraray meesha albaabka Westfield Wollongong, waxayna qaateen taleefankayga iyo boorsadayda lacagta ku jirto. Waxay ahayd qiyaastii sagaal iyo shan iyo afartan habeenkii, Khamiis dhawaad habeenkii dambe.
Did you get a good look at any of the three men, or notice which direction they ran after taking your things?
Mid ka mid ah wuxuu xidhnaa jaakad madow oo hoodie leh, waxayna u carareen xagga baarkinka baabuurta. Wejigooda si fiican uma arag maadaama ay habeen ahayd.
That's helpful, thank you. Were you injured at all, or did any of them threaten you with a weapon?
Hub kama arkin, laakiin mid ka mid ah wuu i riixay dhulka, taasoo igu keentay in aan dhulka ku dhaco. Wax dhaawac oo weyn ma qaadan, laakiin gacantayda ayaa xanuunsan.
I'll record this as a robbery, not simple theft, since force was used against you. Do you know if any nearby shops have CCTV covering that entrance?
Ma ogi haddii ay kaamirooyin leeyihiin dukaannada u dhow, laakiin xarunta iibka Westfield Wollongong guud ahaan waxay leedahay kaamirooyin ilaalin oo ka jira meelo badan.
Good. We'll request that footage from centre security today. If you locate your phone through Find My iPhone, please don't approach the offenders yourself.
Mahadsanid. Marka warbixintan la buuxiyo, ma jiraa wax faah faahin ah oo aan filan karo, ama ma sugi doonaa inta laga soo xiriirayo?
I can't promise a fixed timeframe for updates, but you'll be contacted if there's a significant development, and here's your event number for insurance.
Waan ku mahadsanahay caddaynta. Fadlan ii sii lambarka dhacdada si aan ugu isticmaalo sharikada caymiska.
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 numberWaxaad u sheegi kartaa 'lambarka dhacdada' ama si toos ah 'event number', iyadoo la sharraxayo in uu yahay lambar booliska bixiyo.
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.
