REPORTED SPEECH | INDIRECT SPEECH | DIRECT SPEECH - statements, questions, commands

REPORTED SPEECH | INDIRECT SPEECH | DIRECT SPEECH Hi Everyone, In today’s lesson, let’s look at REPORTED SPEECH (aka INDIRECT SPEECH) in detail. We’ll look at: 1. direct speech 2. backshifting (what???) 3. reporting verbs 4. modal verbs 5. reported questions 6. reported commands One of the most important aspects of reported speech is ‘backshifting’. This is moving a tense one step backwards. (I’ll leave a list for you below!)
