Full transcript
Take a seat, please. Can you tell me when your right eye first became red, itchy, and started producing that yellow discharge?
Buenos días, doctora. Empezó hace tres días, primero solo picaba, pero ayer amaneció con los párpados pegados por una secreción amarilla espesa.
Is it painful, or does it feel more like grittiness and burning? Have you noticed any change in your vision, or sensitivity to light?
No le duele demasiado, solo siente como si tuviera arena en el ojo. No ha notado cambios en la visión, pero sí le molesta un poco la luz.
I'll prescribe chloramphenicol eye drops, one drop four times a day for five days. Please wash your hands thoroughly before and after each application.
Entendido, doctora. Le pondré la gota cuatro veces al día durante cinco días y me lavaré las manos antes y después, como usted dice.
Avoid wearing contact lenses until the infection clears completely, and please don't share towels, pillowcases, or makeup with anyone else at home.
Ella no usa lentes de contacto, pero comparte la habitación con su hermano menor. Voy a lavar las toallas y las fundas de almohada por separado.
You can collect the drops today from Chemist Warehouse on Bourke Street. If there's no improvement at all within three days, please come back immediately.
Perfecto, pasaré por Chemist Warehouse en Bourke Street esta misma tarde. Si no mejora en tres días, la traigo de vuelta sin falta.
She should stay home from school for twenty-four hours after starting the drops, since acute conjunctivitis spreads very easily among young children.
Entiendo, la mantendré en casa esas veinticuatro horas después de empezar el tratamiento. Le avisaré a la escuela que no asistirá mañana.

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.
