Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today—I have a full-time warehouse role in Dandenong that could suit your experience. Are you available to start next Monday?
Haa, waan diyaar ahay oo waan rabaa inaan bilaabo shaqada. Immisa saacadood ayaan maalintii shaqeyn doonaa?
Shifts run eight hours a day, Monday to Friday, starting at seven a.m. Public transport stops nearby, but there's no company transport provided.
Fahamsanahay. Ma waxaa loo baahan yahay shahaado gaar ah, sida White Card, si aan uga shaqeeyo goobtan?
Yes, you'll need a current White Card before starting, plus closed-toe boots. Without it, the site won't allow you access.
Waan haystaa White Card, waxaana la cusboonaysiiyay dhowaan. Immisa lacag ayaan heli doonaa toddobaadkiiba haddii aan shaqeeyo shan maalmood?
Pay follows the Fair Work award, paid weekly into your bank account—never in cash. You'll also receive superannuation, and tax will be withheld automatically each pay cycle.
Waa mahadsanahay faahfaahinta. Goorma iyo xagee ayaan tagi doonaa maalinta ugu horeysa?
You'll start next Monday at the Dandenong South depot on Frankston Road, reporting to the site supervisor by six forty-five a.m.
Fiican. Ma waxaa la siin doonaa qalabka badbaadada sida dharka iyo gacmo-gashiga, ama waa inaan iibsado naftayda?
The company provides a hi-vis vest, gloves, and safety glasses at no cost, but you must complete a thirty-minute safety induction first.
Mahadsanid aad iyo aad. Waxaan iman doonaa Isniinta subaxnimo, saacadda lixda iyo shan iyo afartan, oo diyaar ah inaan bilaabo shaqada.
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.
- fair workKu dhawaaq 'Fair Work' si toos ah, sida Fair Work Ombudsman ama Fair Work Commission.
- superannuationWaxaad isticmaali kartaa erayga 'superannuation' ama ku sheeg 'lacagta hawlgabnimada' - labaduba way shaqeeyaan haddii aad sharax kooban ku darto.
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.
