Cápsula informativa sobre el asma, la cual es una enfermedad respiratoria incurable, pero controlable.

Spanish for healthcare professionals 🏥


Medical Spanish

Asma / Asthma 🏥  

MARK: Excuse me. Could you tell me where the library is?
NANCY: Yes, it’s that way. You go three blocks to Washington Street, 
then turn right. It’s on the corner, across from the bank.
MARK: Thanks! I’ve only been in town a few days, so I really don’t 
know my way around yet.
NANCY: Oh, I know how you feel. We moved here a year ago, and 
I still don’t know where everything is!



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Could you tell me … is slightly more polite than “Can you tell me …?”
• Could you tell me where the library is? Notice that “library” is stressed here because 
it is the word with the important information. This is an indirect question, so the subject 
(the library) comes before the verb (is). The word order is reversed in a direct question 
(Where is the library?).
• Yes, it’s that way. Notice the stress on “that.” The speaker is pointing in a certain 
direction and wants to emphasize that direction.
• I know how you feel is a way of saying “I understand.” Notice the emphasis on “feel.” 
The speaker wants to show empathy and understanding.
• I still don’t know where everything is! Notice the word order of where “everything 
is.” The subject (everything) comes before the verb (is). This word order is different from 
the direct question (Where is everything?)

   c. Cold feet - To feel nervous or hesitant about something.
      Example: "On the day of the performance, he got cold feet and almost backed out."
   d. Jump for joy - To be extremely happy and excited.
      Example: "When they won the lottery, they jumped for joy."
   e. Eat one's heart out - To feel intense jealousy or regret.
