I have often a headache and my temperature rises a little nearly every evening.
I don’t cough much.
But I have a feeling of tightness across the chest, and at times I have trouble in breathing.
It doesn’t get so bad as to feel I am stifling, but it is very uncomfortable.
I sleep badly, and often wake up.
Sometimes I shiver.
Will you look at my throat ? It is sore.
I have caught cold, and yesterday I was running a high temperature.
I don’t digest my food well and after meals my stomach feels loaded. I keep close watch on my diet, though, and never eat to excess.
I have always had a weak stomach, and a change of cooking throws it out of order at once.
Will you sound my lungs ? I must have a touch of bronchitis.
I am very highly-strung, and I have often to take a sedative.
Don’t you find my heart rather irregular ?
I have palpitations at times.
I had pneumonia two years ago.
Except for that, my general state is satisfactory ?
I wrenched my ankle this morning and it hurts a lot. I am limping badly.
I had to take a taxi here.
I think I shall have to lie up.
How long shall I have to rest ?
I have had a fall and broken my arm.
Will you set it, please ?
My glasses aren’t strong enough. Can you tell me of an oculist ?
I am shortsighted; long-sighted.
With these glasses, I see things at a distance fairly well, but I can’t read. The letters get blurred.
These glasses suit me.
I see perfectly well.

We should like to go to the theatre. Have you a booklet like our This Week in Paris to tell us what is being played ?
I don’t know any of these plays. Can you give me an idea of what they are like ?
I don’t want too serious a play. I prefer something that would make me laugh.
There must not be too many things over my head either.
Something simple enough for me to understand, or perhaps a classical play I might have read.
If you can get me the book of the play, I would read it before I go.
What time does the evening performance begin ?
At six thirty or seven ? It’s dreadfully early!
How can you put in the rest of the evening ? The performance must be over by nine fifteen.
It is too late to go to the Music Hall. But one could finish off the evening in a night club.
Is there a ticket-agent’s office anywhere here ?
If it is in the Strand, I know where it is. I’ll be going past this afternoon, and I’ll step into the box-office myself.
Will you please give me two stalls ? Not too close to the stage, though.
You have no seats left except in the back row ? That doesn’t matter. I’ll take them.
I should have to book a week ahead at least ? Unless I go to the second gallery ?
And in that case I should have to queue up ?
How long has the play been running ?
I’m going to have a look at the bill.
Are the intervals long ?
Is evening-dress compulsory ?
Is there a curtain-raiser before the big play ?
Would you mind asking the box-attendant if she could get me a programme ?
Do you think this play witty ? To my mind, it is rather boring.
This actress plays really well. She has got inside her part.
This actor overacts a bit. He is not natural enough.
Ah! the curtain is going up for the second act.
I am glad I came. The play was
Nos dezur gi a teatro. Ar vu un broxel as na “Et vek Parisye”, indikanda ко ludat ?
