Dotor : What seems to be the problems?

CATHY : Well, I have a bad cough and a sore throat. I also have a headache.

Dotor : How long have you had these symptoms?

CATHY: About three days now. And I'm really tried, too

DOCTOR : Hmm, It sound like you've got to flu. Take aspirin every four hours and get plenty of rest. Make sure you drink lots of fluids. Call me if you're still sick next week.

CATHY : OK. Thanks.

Language notes

  • What seems to be the problem? means "What is the problem?" Notice that the intonation falls at the end of the question. The doctor want information, not a "yes/no" answer.

  • Well is used introdutory word. Notice how the vowel is drawn out, to sound like "Weeeeeell..." This can be used as a wayto "buy time" while you think about what you want to say next.

  • A bad cough... a sore throat... a headache. Notice the article "a" before each symptom.

  • About is used to mean 'more or less." It's used here to give an estimate of time.

  • Take aspirin... get rest... Make sure... Call me...  Notice the doctor uses the simple tense here to given insturctions. This is the imperative form of the verb.

  • Still sick means "continue to be sick."
