Direct and indirect speech
By Caplescu Andreea
Kaya Ebru
Introduction
There two ways to convey a message of a person, or the
words spoken by a person to other person.
• Direct speech
• Indirect speec
• Direct Speech
We may quote the actual words of the speaker. This method is called
Direct Speech.
• Indirect Speech
We may report what he said without quoting his exact words. This
method is called Indirect Speech or Reported Speech.
Example
Suppose your friend whose name is John tells you in school,
“I will give you a pen”. You come to home and you want to
tell your brother what your friend told you. There are two
ways to tell him.
Direct speech: John said, “I will give you a pen”.
Indirect Speech: John said that he would give me a pen.
