I apologize for calling this meeting on such short notice.
Maaf atas rapat mendadak ini dalam waktu yang sangat singkat.

The issue that bothers him most is the lack of sleep.
Masalah yang paling mengganggunya adalah kurang tidur.

Dia sudah terganggu oleh infeksi ringan selama beberapa minggu.

EN: The causative verb 'let' is used here to signal a professional transition into a physical examination. In medical contexts, it functions as a polite imperative that informs the patient of the next step while maintaining a gentle, authoritative tone.
Let me review your medical history before we proceed.
Sebelum kita melanjutkan, izinkan saya memeriksa riwayat kesehatan Anda terlebih dahulu.

Bisakah Anda menahan napas selama beberapa detik untuk saya?

Higher prices do not necessarily mean better quality.
Harga yang lebih tinggi tidak selalu berarti kualitas yang lebih baik.

The doctor wrote a prescription for some painkillers after the surgery.
Setelah operasi, dokter menulis resep untuk obat pereda nyeri.

EN: The sentence features a reduced relative clause 'I should be aware of' which modifies 'side effects'. The relative pronoun 'that' or 'which' is omitted because it serves as the object of the preposition 'of'.

Sebelum menandatangani kontrak, adakah hal lain yang harus saya perhatikan?

EN: The phrase 'were you to take' is an inverted conditional structure (Second Conditional). It replaces 'if you were to take' by moving the auxiliary verb 'were' to the beginning and omitting 'if'. This structure is used for hypothetical situations and adds a formal, polite, or professional tone to the advice.
Were you to experience any severe pain, please contact the clinic immediately.
Jika Anda merasakan nyeri yang hebat, segera hubungi klinik.
EN: The modal verb 'should' in 'that should be minimized' expresses a strong probability or expectation based on logical deduction, rather than an obligation. It suggests that the outcome is the most likely result of the action taken.
If we leave now, we should arrive before the meeting starts.
Jika kita berangkat sekarang, kita seharusnya bisa tiba sebelum rapat dimulai.

EN: The use of 'One more thing' acts as a discourse marker to signal a transition to a final, often crucial, point before concluding a conversation. It is common in professional settings to ensure all concerns are addressed.
