Direct And Indirect Narration In English Grammar PDF Download We can report the words of a speaker in two ways (i). Direct Reporting Or Direct Narration (ii). Indirect Reporting Or Indirect Narration. Direct Narration It is the method in which the actual words of the speaker are reported within Inverted commas. For Example (i) Mohan says, “he
is my friend”. (ii) Ram said, “he is going”. Indirect Narration It is the method in which the substance or idea of the speaker’s words is reported without using his actual works. The sentence given above is converted into Indirect Narration. For Example (i) Mohan says that he is my friend. (ii) Ram said that he is going. Reporting Speech The part of the
whole sentence outside the Inverted Commas in Direct Narration is called Reporting Speech, and the verb used in this part is called Reporting Speech. Reported Speech The part of the whole sentence in which the actual words of the speaker are written within the Inverted Commas is called the Reported Speech, and the verb used in this part is
called Reported Verb. Rules for Changing Direct Narration into Indirect Narration The rules for changing the Direct Narration into Indirect Narration is divided into four parts. 1. Rules for Connectives 2. Rules for change in Sentence 3. Rules for change of Persons 4. Other rules for Miscellaneous Changes Rules for Connectives When the entire
sentence is required to be change from Direct Narration into Indirect Narration. the two parts of the sentence is likely to be joined by some connectives. The following are these rules. (A) Interrogative Sentence: If the Reported speech is in the form of an Interrogative sentence, it can be connected in two ways according to the structure of the
Interrogative sentence. (i) If the interrogative sentence begins with an Interrogative Adverb( What, Why, Where, How, When etc ) or with an Interrogative Adjective / Pronoun ( Who, Whose, Whom, What, Which etc. ) no connectives is required to join it. It is a mistake to use that to connect such a sentence. For Example Direct: He said, “where are
you going” ? Indirect: He asked me where i was going ? (ii) If the Interrogative sentence begins with the Auxiliary Verb / Helping Verb, the connective Whether or if is used to join it. For Example Direct: Ha said, “Is he doctor ? Indirect: He said whether he was doctor. Direct: I said, ” Do you smoke”? Indirect: I asked whether you smoke. (iii) If the
reported speech begins with the Do or Does, then Do and Does is removed from the reported speech,and in their place the Past Indefinite Tense of the main verb is used. For Example Direct: He said to Ram,”Do you know his name”. Indirect: He asked Ram whether he knew his name. Direct: Ram said to him,”Does Suresh Go to School”. Indirect: Ram
asked him whether Suresh goes to School. (iv) If the Reported Speech begins with the Auxiliary Verb Did then the did is removed and the Past Perfect form of the main verb is used. For Example Direct: I said to him,”Did you go to School yesterday”. Indirect: I asked him whether he had gone to school the previous day. (B) Assertive Sentence: If the
reported speech is in the form of assertive sentence, then the connective that is used to join two sentence. For Example Direct: He said, “He is going to home”. Indirect: He said that he was going to home. (C) Imperative Sentence: If the reported speech is in the form of Imperative sentence, then the no connective is used to join two sentence but
the main verb of the Imperative sentence is converted into an Infinite Verb. For Example Direct: He said to the servant,”Close the door.” Indirect: He asked the servant to close the door. Direct: He said,”Please give me a glass of water.” Indirect: He requested to give him a glass of water. (D) Exclamatory Sentence: If the Reported Speech is in the
form of Exclamatory Sentence ( indicating surprise, fear, wish or contempt etc. ), it is changed into an assertive sentence in the Indirect Narration form and connective that is used to join it with the Reporting speech. For Example Direct: He said,” What a horrible scene ? Indirect: He said that it was a horrible scene. (E) Exclamatory sentence: The
sentences which carry the sense of sudden joy, sorrow, Wonder, disappointment are called exclamatory sentence. These sentences generally begins with word Alas, Oh, Hurrah, Bravo, How, What a, etc. (i) In place of the Reporting Verb ‘Said’ some other verbs as Exclaimed, Wished and Prayed are used according to the sentence. (ii) Connective
‘that’ is used. (iii) After the Reporting Verb, we use such expressions as Joyfully, Sorrowfully, With Sorrow, With Joy, In astonishment, according to the sense. (iv) Exclamatory sentence is changed into assertive sentence. (v) The rules for change for Tense and Pronoun are the same as used in assertive sentence. Direct: He said,”Alas, I am ruined”.
Indirect: He exclaimed that he was ruined. Direct: He said, “O, what a chance !. Indirect: He exclaimed that it was a fine chance. Rules for Change in Tense Rule 1 It should first be remembered that no change is ever made in the Tense of the Reporting Verb. but of course, without changing the tense, the verb can be changed according to the sense of
the Reported Speech. For Example, In place of say or said , we can use tell or told , or we can use replied, remarked, asked, observed, declared etc. according to the sense. But in no case there should be a change in the tense of the Reporting Speech. Rule 2 If the Reporting Verb is in the Present or Future Tense, no change is made in the tense of the
Reported Verb, But of course, the form of the auxiliary verb will change according to the change in the person of the Subject in the Indirect Narration Form. For Example am can be changed into is or are; or do and have can be changed into does or has, but no change can be made in the tense in the process of this change. For Example Direct: He
says, ” I am not feeling well today”. Indirect: He says that he is not feeling well today. Direct: He will say to me, “you are not kind to me.” Indirect: He will tell me that I am not kind to him.

into Past Indefinite tense. For Example Direct: He said,”I am unwell”. Indirect: He said that he was unwell. (B) Present Continuous is converted into Past Continuous Tense.

(D) Present Perfect Continuous Tense is converted into Past Perfect Continuous Tense. For Example Direct: Mohan said,”I have been working hard since July”. Indirect: Mohan said that he had been working hard since July. (II) (A)
Ordinarily no change is made in the Past Indefinite Tense, but sometimes it is changed into Past Perfect Tense. For Example Direct: Rams said,”He visited Delhi last year”. Indirect: Ram said that he visited Delhi last year. Direct: He said,”the horse died last night”. Indirect: He said that the horse had died last night. (B) Past Continuous Tense is

his work long ago. Direct: Ram said,”I had been doing that work for several years”. Indirect: Ram said that he had been doing these work for several years. Rule 4 Will and Shall of the future tense are changed into Would and Should. For Example Direct: He said,”Ram will go to the market”. Indirect: He said that Ram would go to the market. Direct:

For Example Direct: The
teacher said in the class,”the sun rises in the east”. Indirect: The teacher said in the class that the sun rises in the east. Direct: He said,”Man lives by beard”. Indirect: He said that man lives by beard. Rule 8 When words like sir, your Honour, Your majesty, Please, Kindly etc. are used in the reported speech, their sense is expressed by using the
following expressions with the reporting Verb, and these are dropped. For Example Direct: The student said to the teacher,”Sir, mark me present”. Indirect: The student respectfully requested the teacher to mark present. Rules for change in Person All pronouns (I, We, You, He, she, they) used in the reported speech are changed according to the
following rules. Rule 1 Every First Person Pronoun used in the reported speech is changed according to the person of the Subject of the Reporting Speech. For Example Direct: He said,”I am doing my work”. Indirect: He said that he was doing his work. Rule 2 Every second person in the reported speech is changed according to the person of
