Health - Shyam, Lindsay, Lassi,
Can we see if we can collectively come up with health-related vocabulary? I would really appreciate help in this.

I'll post questions of a general interview (modified of course by responses) and I would like to generate possible responses as well as translations of the questions with your help.

I think something like this will apply in general life too, not just for a health professional, because we all look out for each other's health in some way all the time.

What do you think? Can you help?

Shyam Saturday 10th of December 2005 12:33:25 PM
- Sure Sure we can! Sounds like a great idea!

Lindsay Saturday 10th of December 2005 02:51:39 PM
- I tried to post this earlier, but it didn't work for some reason. Anyway it sounds good to me! We could all probably learn quite a bit from it. I'll try my best~ :)

Anya Sunday 11th of December 2005 05:42:39 AM
- La, ramro!

I am going to post a list of questions and we can work on translating them., thīk?

Anya Sunday 11th of December 2005 06:24:51 AM
- We don't have to do a word-for-word translation, but instead trying to approximate the most comprehensible form of the question.
So let's replace the English in this posts with Nepali in future posts, and maybe Shyam can recommend better ways to word these questions.

Even if you don't know how to ask the whole question, maybe we can contribute individual vocabularly words to put everything together?

1. How is your health in general?
2. Do you have any pain?
3. Have you had any problems with your vision?
4. Are you able to see during dusk or in a dark room?
5. Are you able to close your eyes tightly?
6. Do your eyes water at times or are they particularly dry?
7. Has your vision changed in the past year, 5 years?

22. Could you push against my palm?
23. Don't let me push your palms.
24. Put your hands on your lap.
25. Can you do this? (showing how to rotate palms, it's a test of cerebellar function).
26. Push against my hands, don't let me push. (testing leg muscles).
27. Can you feel this?
28. Is this the same as this (that)?
29. Now, I would like to check your vision.
30. I need to dim the light so that I could see better.
31. Please look straight ahead.
32. I will be shining a light in your eye to see how it is doing. -- akhamā = in eye?
33. I am going to check your pulse, so please do not talk, but breathe evenly.
34. I am going to measure your blood pressure now.
35. This will not hurt, but it will squeeze a little.
36. I am going to listen to your lungs (with a stethoscope).
37. Please breathe through your mouth (evenly).
38. Please say "ī"
39. I am going to listen to your heart now.

41. Here is a pillow for comfort, and you can bend your knees if you'd like.
42. I am going to check your liver.

45. I am going to check your tummy.
46. I am going to check your spleen now.
47. Have you had any problems with your stomach?
48. What do you usually eat?
49. Have you changed what you eat? recently?
50. Do you ever have trouble going to the bathroom?
51. Is there a toilet in your house? in your village?
52. Is there water where you live? Is it clean or do you have to boil it?
53. Any pains in your groin? any lumps or bumps?
54. Can you feel your toes?
55. Can you wiggle your toes?
56. I am going to check your reflexes.
57. I need you to relax your arm, shoulder, leg.
58. Could you please stand up?
59. Can you lift one leg off the ground?
60. Do you ever feel stiff?
61. How many family members are living with you?
62. Describe your family.
63. Do you have a significant other?
64. Do you have any children?
65. Do you know of anyone in your family who is blind?
65. Does anyone in your family need to see a doctor?
66. Why?

That's it for now. Can we try any of them?
