Direct and Indirect (Reported Speech)

What is reported speech?

Reported speech is when we tell someone what another person said. To change from direct
into indirect speech is quite tricky, because you need to remember the changes of tenses.To
do this, we can use direct speech or indirect speech.
01. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in simple present
If the direct speech form in simple present tense, then the indirect speech will be use
simple past tense.
Example: (Direct speech in simple tense)
1. Direct speech: 'I work in a bank,' said Daniel.
2. Indirect speech: Daniel said that he worked in a bank.

Note: You may asked why “I” turn become “he”? Please look carefuly the person who said is
“he”. So every word “I” will change into the person who speak there.

02. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in present continuous

If the direct speech form in present continuous tense, then the indirect speech will be
use past continuous tense.
Example: (Direct and indirect speech in present continuous and past continuous tense)
1. Direct speech: “I am cooking for dinner” she said.
2. Indirect speech: She said that she was cooking a dinner.

Note: In this example you may notice that “am” changed into “was”. That because in
continuous “to be” for present changed become “to be” for past.
03. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in present future
If the direct speech form in present perfect tense, then the indirect speech will be use
past perfect tense.
Example: (Direct and indirect speech in present future)
1. Direct speech: “I have founded a treasure” Jaka said
2. Indirect speech: Jaka said that he founded a treasure.

Note: In this condition, we need to change “have” become “had”.

04. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in future perfect continuous tense
If the direct speech form in future perfect continuous tense, then the indirect speech
will be use past perfect continuous tense.
Example: (Direct and indirect speech in perfect continuous tense)
1. Direct speech: “I have been searching the book” Salsa said.
2. Indirect speech: Salsa said that she had been searching the book.

Note: In this condition, we need to change “have” become “had”.

05. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in simple past tense

If the direct speech form in the simple past tense, then the indirect speech will be use
past perfect tense.
Example: (Direct and indirect speech in simple past tense)
1. Direct speech: “I took Jaka to home” Salsa said.
2. Indirect speech: Salsa said that she had taken Jaka to home.

Note: In this condition, we need to change verb 2 into verb 3 but add “had” exactly before
verb 3

06. Direct to indirect speech if direct speech in future tense

If the direct speech form in the future tense, then the indirect speech will be use
conditional.
Example: (Direct and indirect speech in future tense)
1. Direct speech: “I will be in Jakarta soon” Dani said.
2. Indirect speech: Dani said that he would be in Jakarta soon.

Note: In this condition, we need to change “will” become “would”
