How to say ‘instead of’ in Saudi Arabic

Здравствуйте, друзья! Это мой подкаст «По-русски легко!». Я решила записать серию аудио с самыми нужными фразами. Сегодня идём к врачу! 
Итак, если у вас есть медицинский полис, то вы можете получить медицинскую помощь бесплатно в государственных поликлиниках и больницах. В России медицинские полисы есть у всех. Даже если человек не работает, у него есть полис обязательного медицинского страхования (police d'assurance médicale).
Сначала вам нужно пойти к терапевту. Вы можете записаться онлайн или прийти в поликлинику. Там регистратор вас запишет на приём к врачу. Терапевту спросит, что вас беспокоит. Он даст вам рецепт и предложит сдать анализы.  Если нужно, то терапевт запишет вас на консультацию к специалисту. Обычно врач даёт направление к кардиологу, окулисту, хирургу.

Что обычно спрашивает врач у пациента? Вот несколько фраз:
- Что вас беспокоит? (Qu'est-ce qui vous dérange?)
- Давно это у вас?  Depuis combien de temps avez-vous ça?

Пациент рассказывает, какие у него проблемы. 
 - У меня болит голова.  J'ai mal à la tête.
- У меня болит живот. J'ai mal au ventre.
 - У меня температура и болит горло. J'ai de la fièvre et un mal de gorge.
- У меня кашель. Je tousse.
- У меня слабость. - Je me sens faible.

Рекомендации врача:
- Вам нужно сдать анализы. Il faut passer des tests.
- Вот ваш рецепт. Voici votre ordonnance pour les médicaments.
- Принимайте эти таблетки два раза в день после еды. Prenez ces pilules deux fois par jour après avoir mangé.
Желаю вам быть здоровыми! Спасибо, что слушаете мои подкасты!

По-русски легко!

Идём к врачу!

Jimmy oggi è un signore anziano, ma ama raccontare la sua vita da bambino.
Da piccolo aveva i capelli corti, biondi e lisci. Era magro e alto e portava l’apparecchio. Non indossava gli occhiali. Jimmy abitava nella periferia di Londra e ogni mattina andava a scuola in bicicletta con la sua migliore amica. A essere onesti, la scuola non gli piaceva affatto. Nelle cinque ore di lezione dormiva, stava poco attento o chiacchierava con i compagni di classe. Amava studiare solo la matematica. Il pomeriggio, infatti, dopo le lezioni faceva sempre i compiti di matematica. Poi usciva e andava a giocare con gli amici. I suoi genitori si arrabbiavano sempre con lui.
Quando è cresciuto, Jimmy ha iniziato a lavorare in panetteria. Ogni giorno si svegliava alle 3 e iniziava il lavoro molto presto. Però finiva anche presto: a ora di pranzo si liberava e poteva riposare tutto il pomeriggio e trascorrere il tempo come più preferiva.
Abitava in una piccola casa con la sua famiglia: la casa aveva due camere da letto, un salotto, una cucina e un bagno. Dietro la casa c’era un cortile dove Jimmy amava leggere il giornale. Già all’epoca, come oggi, faceva molto sport: ogni fine settimana andava in bicicletta. Tutti i pomeriggi, dopo pranzo, passeggiava al parco e faceva un po’ di ginnastica per tonificare i muscoli.
Jimmy era felice della sua vita e lo è ancora oggi.

This is a brief summary of the story of how I helped my client improve her communication at work. 

A project manager felt disrespected by her team due to a lack of technical knowledge and weak communication. To address this, I implemented a 3-step approach: 1) bi-weekly technical briefings, 2) replacing weak verbs with strong verbs to convey authority, and 3) assertiveness training to express ideas clearly. Within weeks, she confidently participated in technical discussions, leading her team more effectively. This improved communication boosted morale and led to a successful product launch.
