问埋点用.有咩要注意先
Reported Speech 当你要把人地既说话复述出唻既时候
你就需要用到reported speech. 中文例子: 小明: “今日我无返学.” 之后你复述时会讲: 小明话今日佢无返学. Reported speech 内
引号无左
而我会变成佢. 当句子由direct 改成reported speech 时
需要作以下既改变. Present tense à past tense Past tense à past perfect tense Present perfect à past perfect Will à would Can à could Examples: (第一句direct speech
第二句reported speech) Joey said
“I am very tired.” Joey said that she was tired. 复述他人的句子时
多数会用到that 来连接. Lily said
“I was a doctor before changing careers.” Lily said that she was a doctor before changing career. The teacher said
“Be quiet!” The teacher told us to be quiet. Kelly asked
“What color is your new car?” Kelly asked what color my new car was. 当改成reported speech 时
is(was) 既位置由名词前面改成名词后面. 有what/which/who/where 等时亦唔需要加that 来连接. Tom asked
“Can you dance?” Tom asked me if I could dance. 当问题系yes/no question 时
就会用到if.
参考: grammar teacher
Indirect Speech (also referred to as 'reported speech') refers to a sentence reporting what someone has said. It is almost always used in spoken English. If the reporting verb (i.e. said) is in the past
the reported clause will be in a past form. This form is usually one step back into the past from the original. For example: He said the test was difficult. She said she watched TV every day. Jack said he came to school every day. If simple present
present perfect or the future is used in the reporting verb (i.e. says) the tense is retained. For example: He says the test is difficult. She has said that she watches TV every day. Jack will say that he es to school every day. If reporting a general truth the present tense will be retained. For example: She said
"I want to bring my children." BECOMES She said she wanted to bring her children. Jack said
"My wife went with me to the show." BECOMES Jack said his wife had gone with him to the show. It is also important to change time words (signifiers) when referring to present
past or future time to match the moment of speaking. For example: She said
"I want to bring my children tomorrow." BECOMES She said she wanted to bring her children the next day. Jack said
"My wife went with me to the show yesterday." BECOMES Jack said his wife had gone with him to the show the day before. Indirect Questions When reporting questions
it is especially important to pay attention to sentence order. When reporting yes/ no questions connect the reported question using 'if'. When reporting questions using question words (why
where
when
e) use the question word. For example: She asked
"Do you want to e with me?" BECOMES She asked me if I wanted to e with her. Dave asked
"Where did you go last weekend?" BECOMES Dave asked me where I had gone the previous weekend. He asked
"Why are you studying English?" BECOMES She asked me why I was studying English. The following chart includes sentences changed from quoted speech to reported speech using a past form. NoteSimple past

and past perfect allchange to past perfect in the reported form.
