Aha, OK. Is it enough?

:blossom: In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful. :blossom:

Hi!


Doctor: OK, Mario, just sit up here on the table.
Man: OK.
Doctor: I’m going to start by looking in your eyes and what I would like you to do is
to stare at the wall there.
Man: Aha, OK. Is it enough? ←
Doctor: That’s right. OK … How is your health in general?



1- What he really says?

A- Is it enough? ← Original text
B- Is that enough? ← online audio to text converter1
C- easy enough. ← online audio to text converter2
D- see enough. ← online audio to text converter3


2- What does “That’s right” mean here?
Does it mean “Yes”?

Thank you

As for your first question none of the choices you’ve given are acceptable - at least not in my opinion - because you can clearly hear: ‘You see enough?’ and as for your second, ‘That’s right’ means ‘Yes’.

I hope your health is good in general.

Hope this helps

It sounds like he just slurs through easy enough (C), meaning something like “I can do that.”

As for “That’s right “, the doctor sounds like he’s just giving general feedback such as “You’re doing fine at what I asked you to do.”

It’s hard to understand from the written text what either of these phrases means. Much of the meaning — or lack of meaning — comes from the tone. The speakers say them sort of under their breath (at a low level), not meaning much by them. They certainly don’t expect a response.

I’m pretty sure he says “easy enough”.

When you slow it down to half speed it’s more clear.

I was in the neighbourhood and I thought why don’t I pop in at NN’s

I would just like to say: ‘I would never be sure about something so unsure.’

Read it and weep, then just nap off. :rofl:

Because (C) could be correct, when slowed down I hear something like:‘iê see enough?’ Which might be: ‘D’ ye see enough?', or ‘Ye see enough?’

Ta-ta!
