Reported Speech
When you talk with someone there are 2 ways
of doing it
DIRECTLY
“I have lost my umbrella”
INDIRECTLY
She said (that) she had
lost her umbrella
Reported Speech
DIRECTLY
“I have lost my umbrella”
INDIRECTLY
She said (that) she had lost her umbrella
The first one is placed between inverted
commas and can be found in conversations in
books, plays or quotations.
Reported Speech
DIRECTLY
“I have lost my umbrella”
INDIRECTLY
She said (that) she had lost her umbrella
In the second one we explain what the speaker has
said, not repeating his / her exact words.
(THAT) can be ommited and we use some verbs as
SAY, TELL, EXPLAIN…to introduce our sentence
• She said, “My birthday party is tonight”
• She said that her birthday party was that night
Appart from verbs, 1st and 2nd pronouns and
possessive adjectives normally change
I ( HE / SHE )
ME ( HIM/ HER)
“ I live in Paris” - She said that she lived in Paris
“ He loves me” - She said that he loved her
MY( HIS/ HER)
“ I like my bike” - He said that he liked his bike
MINE( HIS/ HER)
“ It is mine” - She said that is was his
WE ( THEY …)
“ We live in Paris” - They said that they lived in
Paris
• She said, “My birthday party is tonight”
• She said that her birthday party was that night
Apart from verbs, 1st and 2nd pronouns and
possessive adjectives, expression times usually
change
TODAY (THAT DAY )
WHY?
TOMORROW ( THE
PREVIOUS DAY)
YESTERDAY ( THE
PREVIOUS DAY)
NOW( THEN)
THIS ( THAT…)
Because you are not going
to
repeat
the conversation
“I am
leaving TOMORROW”
- She said that she was living
THE PREVIOUS DAY
in“she
that
moment,
left YESTERDAY” - She said that she had left THE
NEXT DAY
maybe
you
will
repeat
it
two
“ I’m leaving NOW” - She said that she was leaving THEN
days later
“ I am leaving TODAY” - She said that she was living THAT
DAY
“ I love THIS book” - They said that she loved THAT book

STATEMENTS
• When you repeat statements in an indirect way
you usually introduce your sentence with verbs
such as TOLD / SAY and the word THAT
(although it is optional)
• There are some rules you must understand
• You don’t usually repeat the situation in that
moment, you will repeat it in the future, so you
will talk about the past.
We are going to make a game.
Last week I gave you some papers with some
information about me
Now, you are going to tell everybody what did
I tell you
But be careful, you received the paper last
week so you can’t not use present or future
tenses

• Whatever you tell someone in a direct way
using the present tense is going to be told in
the past
• These are all present tenses (simple, perfect
or continuous but present tenses)
