Full transcript

SEGMENT 1 · ENGLISH · 22 WORDS
GP

Mr. Boonmee, thanks for coming in today - can you describe how long your right ear has felt blocked and whether it's painful?

SEGMENT 2 · THAI · 20 WORDS
Patient

หูขวาของผมรู้สึกอื้อมาประมาณสามสัปดาห์แล้วครับ ไม่เจ็บเลย แต่ได้ยินเสียงไม่ค่อยชัด

SEGMENT 3 · ENGLISH · 20 WORDS
GP

Before we start, have you been swimming recently, or do you often use cotton buds to clean inside your ears?

SEGMENT 4 · THAI · 18 WORDS
Patient

ผมไม่ได้ไปว่ายน้ำเลยครับ แต่ใช้ไม้พันสำลีแคะหูเกือบทุกวันเลย

SEGMENT 5 · ENGLISH · 25 WORDS
GP

That explains the blockage - wax has built up and been pushed further in. I'll clear it with gentle irrigation, which usually takes about ten minutes.

SEGMENT 6 · THAI · 14 WORDS
Patient

จะเจ็บไหมครับ ผมค่อนข้างกังวลเรื่องการล้างหูอยู่นิดหน่อย

SEGMENT 7 · ENGLISH · 27 WORDS
GP

It shouldn't hurt at all - we'll use warm water only. If your hearing doesn't improve within two weeks, I'll refer you to St Vincent's Hospital audiology department.

SEGMENT 8 · THAI · 14 WORDS
Patient

ถ้าจำเป็นต้องไปหาหมอเฉพาะทาง ต้องมีใบส่งตัวด้วยไหมครับ

SEGMENT 9 · ENGLISH · 27 WORDS
GP

Yes, I can prepare a referral letter if it's needed later. For now, keep your ear completely dry for 24 hours and avoid inserting anything into it.

SEGMENT 10 · THAI · 19 WORDS
Patient

เข้าใจแล้วครับ ผมจะเลิกใช้ไม้พันสำลี แล้วจะระวังไม่ให้น้ำเข้าหูด้วย

SEGMENT 11 · ENGLISH · 22 WORDS
GP

That's good to hear. Please come back if the fullness returns, or if you notice any dizziness or discharge from the ear.

SEGMENT 12 · THAI · 13 WORDS
Patient

ขอบคุณมากครับคุณหมอ ผมจะดูแลหูให้ดีขึ้นแน่นอนครับ

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.

Practise it

Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room 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. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
