The document discusses the basics of direct and indirect speech. It explains that direct speech conveys the exact words spoken in quotation marks, while indirect speech reports the main idea without quotations. It provides examples of changing pronouns, tenses, time, and more when converting from direct to indirect speech. Rules are given for imperative and exclamatory sentences as well.

Reported speech | Direct and Indirect speechrudralakhani1
Reported speech is an English grammar topic which is one of the hardest grammar topics but this PPT will help you a lot to improve in this grammar topic. This includes all the rules of how to covert direct to indirect speech
We use direct and indirect speech (quoted speech) to convey the speaker's words without any changes or sometimes with some changes. There are two different times/occasions when we need to speak differently. 1st face-to-face. When there are two persons or groups of people talking about anything require active and passive voice sentences. Like I want to speak English. I went to the park yesterday. In these situations, two persons are involved. For Instance:
First-person pronoun and second-person pronoun: “I, we & you.”
But sometimes we needed to share stories, describe events, or report something about the past. On such occasions, we use direct and indirect speech. And mostly third-person pronoun is involved.
direct narration
When the actual words of the speaker are used while conveying a sense is called direct narration .
For Example :
She says , ” I am a Teacher”
He says , “ I am going to Karachi”
indirect narration
It is not the actual words of the speaker but it only conveys the full sense of what he / she has said.
For Example :
She says that she is a teacher.
He said that he is going to Karachi.
English Grammar needs an Understanding of the Usage of Various rules of Narration as well as other aspects like voices and tenses as well.

How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Direct and indirect speech by Sohail Ahmed

1Direct and Indirect Speech
Direct and Indirect speech Basics
Introduction.
There two ways to convey a message of a person, or the words spoken by a person to
other person.
Direct speech
Indirect speech
Direct speech: Sahil said, “I will give you a pen”.
Indirect Speech: Sahil said that he would give me a pen.
Reporting verb: The verb first part of sentence (i.e. he said, she said, he says, they said, she says,)
before the statement of a person in sentence is called reporting verb.
He says, “I am busy.”
Reporting speech Reported speech
Reported Speech. The second part of indirect speech in which something has been told by a person
(which is enclosed in quotation marks in direct speech) is called reported speech. For example, a
sentence of indirect speech is, He said that he worked in a factory. In this sentence the second part
“he worked in a factory” is called reported speech and that is why the indirect speech as a whole can
also be called reported speech.
Fundamental rules for indirect speech.
1. Use of word “that”: The word “that” is used as a conjunction between the reporting
verb and reported speech.
2. Change in pronoun: The pronoun (subject) of the reported speech is changed according
to the pronoun of reporting verb or object (person) of reporting verb (first part of
sentence). Sometimes the pronoun may not change.
In following example the pronoun of reported speech is “I” which will be changed in
indirect speech into the pronoun (Subject) of reporting verb that is “he”.
Example.
Direct speech: He said, “I am happy”
Indirect Speech: He said that he was happy.
Direct speech: I said to him, “you are intelligent”
Indirect Speech: I said him that he was intelligent.
2. Sohail Ahmed
2Direct and Indirect Speech
Change in time: Time is changed according to certain rules like now to then, today to that day,
tomorrow to next day and yesterday to previous day.
Examples.
Direct speech: He said, “I am happy today”
Indirect Speech: He said that he was happy that day.
Change in the tense of reported speech: If the first part of sentence (reporting verb part) belongs to
past tense the tense of reported speech will change. If the first part of sentence (reporting verb part)
belongs to present or future tense, the tense of reported speech will not change.
Examples.
Direct speech: He said, “I am happy”
Indirect Speech: He said that he was happy. (Tense of reported speech changed)
Direct speech: He says, “I am happy”
Indirect Speech: He said that he is happy.
