4. Agenda: In this lesson the students are going to learn about direct and indirect speech. They will also discover rules on how to change direct speech into indirect speech.

5. Concept and Definition Direct and indirect speech In the English language, there are two ways of conveying what someone else had said: Direct/quoted speech - involves quoting the exact words uttered by the person, within inverted commas or quotation marks. - Exact words of the speaker

6. Concept and Definition Example: Anne said, “I will be coming home tonight”. The teacher said to Rajesh, “You have a bright future.”

7. Concept and Definition Indirect/reported speech - does not have to be within quotes or reported word-to word. In fact, unless one is relaying the exact words spoken, one should never use quotation marks. - What the speaker has said without using the exact words.

8. Concept and Definition Example: She said that she would be coming home that night. The teacher told Rajesh that he had a bright future.

9. What is the dereference between Direct and Indirect Speech so far?

10. Exercise 1. She said , "I can swim“ 2. She asked if we should start 3. She said that she looked ugly

11. How do we change direct speech to indirect speech?

12. When we use reported speech, we are usually talking about the past. Therefore, verbs usually change to the past tense in reported speech. We also add reporting clause which the reporting verb can be found.

13. Example: The teacher told Rajesh that he had a bright future. - Here, the phrase, “ The teacher told Rajesh” is the reporting clause and the reporting verb is the “ told”

14. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech Now, let us specify the rules in converting direct speech to indirect speech. Here are the steps on how to do so: 1. Eliminate the quotation marks that enclose the relayed text. -The quotation marks are the primary indication of a direct speech. Therefore, it is crucial to take them out if you are forming an indirect one.

15. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech 2. Retain the tense of the reporting verb and add the word “that” after it. -You have to retain the tense of the reporting verb to allow consistency of reports. Instead of placing a comma to separate the reporting clause from the reported one, the word “that” is added.

16. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech Examples: Direct Speech: She says , “I want to go to Paris.” Indirect Speech: She says that she wants to go to Paris. Direct Speech: She asks, “Do you want to go to Paris?” Indirect Speech: She asks me if I want to go to Paris. Direct Speech: “Ms. Thompson, where are you going?” I asked . Indirect Speech : I asked Ms. Thompson where she was going.

17. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech 3. Change the tense of the verb in the reported speech, if needed. - If the reporting verb is in the past tense, you should change the tense of the verb inside the reported speech into its past tense. This is not necessary if the reporting verb is in the present or future tense.

18. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech Examples: Direct Speech: He said, “I am watching a new TV series.” Indirect Speech: He said that he was watching a new TV series. Direct Speech: He says, “I am watching a new TV series.” Indirect Speech: He says that he is watching a new TV series.

19. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech 4. Change the pronouns accordingly. - You should also change the pronoun based on who the speaker, doer, and receiver of the action is.

20. Converting Direct to Indirect Speech Example: Direct Speech: Wendy says, “Ron, you should take care of yourself.” Indirect Speech: Wendy told Ron that he should take care of himself.
