INDIRECT SPEECH
Live class #7
Indirect speech
When we tell people what another person said or thought, we often use reported speech or indirect speech. To do that, we need to change verb tenses (present, past, etc.) and pronouns (I, you, my, your, etc.) if the time and speaker are different.
Tense changes
changes in expressions
QUESTIONS
We use the normal order of words in reported questions, i.e. the subject comes before the verb, and it is not necessary to use do or did.
IMPERATIVES
When we report an order or instruction, we use the form ask or tell someone to do something.
