| INTRODUCTION |
| Michael: Hi everyone, I'm Michael. |
| Laura: And I'm Laura. |
| Michael: And welcome to Must-Know Medical Spanish Sentence Structures. Review of Systems. Head, Eyes, Ears, Nose, and Throat. |
| Michael: In this lesson, you'll learn a sentence pattern for asking your patient about head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat signs and symptoms they are presenting. |
| PATTERN |
| Michael: First, let’s look at the Spanish sentence for, "Have you had problems with your eyesight?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido problemas con la vista? |
| Laura: [slow] ¿Ha tenido problemas con la vista? |
| Michael: The pattern for asking your patient about the signs and symptoms they have presented has three elements. First, the verb meaning "have [you]." Note how the "you" is omitted from the Spanish sentence, because in Spanish the subject is implied by how the verb is conjugated. |
| Laura: ha, [slow] ha, [normal] ha. |
| Michael: Second, the verb meaning "had." |
| Laura: tenido, [slow] tenido, [normal] tenido. |
| Michael: And last, the signs and symptoms you are asking the patient about – "problems with your eyesight." |
| Laura: problemas con la vista, [slow] problemas con la vista, [normal] problemas con la vista. |
| Michael: Altogether, we have... "Have you had problems with your eyesight?" |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido problemas con la vista? [slow] ¿Ha tenido problemas con la vista? [normal] ¿Ha tenido problemas con la vista? |
| Michael: Here’s another example meaning, "Have you had an earache?" First, the verb "have [you]." |
| Laura: ha |
| Michael: Second, the word meaning "had." |
| Laura: tenido |
| Michael: And last, the signs and symptoms you are asking the patient about – in this case, "an earache." |
| Laura: dolor de oído, [slow] dolor de oído, [normal] dolor de oído. |
| Michael: Altogether we have... |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de oído? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dolor de oído? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dolor de oído? |
| Michael: "Have you had an earache?" |
| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de oído? |
| Michael: The sentence pattern is, |
| Laura: Ha tenido + [Sign or Symptom]. |
| Michael: "Have you had + [Sign or Symptom]." |
| Laura: Ha tenido + [Sign or Symptom]. |
| PRACTICE |
| Michael: Let’s practice. |

| [pause] |
| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de garganta? [slow] ¿Ha tenido dolor de garganta? [normal] ¿Ha tenido dolor de garganta? |

| Laura: ¿Ha tenido dolor de garganta? |
| Michael: Now imagine you are asking your patient "Have you had a runny nose?" "Runny nose" is |
