Direct and indirect speech

Direct and indirect speech can be a source of confusion for English learners. Let's
first define the terms, then look at how to talk about what someone said, and how
to convert speech from direct to indirect or vice-versa.

You can answer the question What did he say? in two ways:

 by repeating the words spoken (direct speech)


 by reporting the words spoken (indirect or reported speech).

Direct Speech

Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct
speech in writing, we place the words spoken between quotation marks (" ") and
there is no change in these words. We may be reporting something that's being said
NOW (for example a telephone conversation), or telling someone later about a
previous conversation.

Examples

 She says, "What time will you be home?"


 She said, "What time will you be home?" and I said, "I don't know! "
 "There's a fly in my soup!" screamed Simone.
 John said, "There's an elephant outside the window."

Indirect speech

Reported or indirect speech is usually used to talk about the past, so we normally
change the tense of the words spoken. We use reporting verbs like 'say', 'tell', 'ask',
and we may use the word 'that' to introduce the reported words. Inverted commas
are not used.

She said, "I saw him." (direct speech) = She said that she had seen him. (indirect
speech)

"That" may be omitted:


She told him that she was happy. = She told him she was happy.

"Say" and "tell"


Use 'say' when there is no indirect object:
He said that he was tired.

Always use 'tell' when you say who was being spoken to (i.e. with an indirect
object):
He told me that he was tired.

"Talk" and "speak"


Use these verbs to describe the action of communicating:
He talked to us.
She was speaking on the telephone.

Use these verbs with 'about' to refer to what was said:


He talked (to us) about his parents.

EDINBURGH
Edinburgh is Scotland’s capital, and one of the most beautiful cities in Britain. It
has been the capital since fifteenth century when it was the centre of Scotland’s
resistance to its enemies. The heart of Edinburgh is the thousand-year-old castle,
where the kings of Scotland lived for centuries. Nowadays, it overlooks one of
Europe’s most famous streets, Prince Street.
From Edinburgh castle you can see for miles, north over the beautiful old streets
and squares to the “Firth”, and arm of the sea that pushes island. Far away are the
mountains of Central Scotland, often covered with snow.
There are also the Royal Palace of Holyrood and many other beautiful monuments.
It is a city of elegant Georgian architecture.
Edinburgh has a busy cultural life. Every year, in September, the international
Festival takes place. Musicians, actors and singers come from all over the world
and thousands of visitors fill the city. In the evening, the opera house, the theatres
and the concert halls are full. In cafes and pubs, small groups sing, act and read
poetry.
The castle is at its best in Festival time. Every night there is a magnificent military
“Tattoo”. Highland soldiers wearing “kilts” play the bagpipes, and march to the
music.
The kilt is only worn by men and is a relic of the time when the clan system
existed in Scottish Highlands.
Tartans, the patterns of the kilts, have an interesting history. Since the fifteenth
century, each Scottish family ( or ‘clan”) has worn its own tartan as a kind of
badge. It was a useful way of recognizing people, especially in times of war. Many
tartans date only from the nineteenth century, but some of the old patterns still
exist. “Dress” tartans, worn on special occasions have light, bright colours.
“Hunting” tartans are usually green, blue or brown.
The kilt and the tartan are very much connected with Scottish history. In 1745
Bonnie Prince Charlie came to Scotland and led a rebellion against King George II
in an attempt to regain the throne for the Stuarts. Most of the Prince’s followers
were highlanders from the clans. The rebellion was a disaster and at the battle of
Culloden the Scots were finally defeated.
