II- CÁC CÁCH TƯỜNG THUẬT TỪ CÂU NÓI TRỰC TIẾP SANG CÂU NÓI GIÁN TIẾP
Ta cần phân tích cấu trúc của câu trực tiếp và câu gián tiếp qua các ví dụ sau:
- My mother said “I want you to study harder.” (Mẹ tôi nói “Mẹ muốn con học hành chăm chỉ
hơn.)
Ta có: - Động từ “said” được gọi là “Động từ giới thiệu”
- Động từ “want” là động từ chính trong câu trực tiếp.
- “I” là chủ ngữ trong câu trực tiếp
- “you” là tân ngữ trong câu trực tiếp
- My mother said / told me that she wanted me to study harder. (Mẹ tôi nó bà ấy muốn tôi học
hành chăm chỉ hơn)
Ta thấy các thành phần như “động từ giới thiệu”, động từ chính, các đại từ (I/you/…) trong câu
trực tiếp khi chuyển sang câu gián tiếp đều phải biến đổi.
Vậy những thành phần nào cần biến đổi, và biến đổi như thế nào, ta sẽ đi vào từng loại câu cụ thể.
1. Các thành phần cần biến đổi trong câu gián tiếp:
* Các đại từ: Ta cần thay đổi đại từ sao cho phù hợp với ngữ cảnh trong câu
* Thay đổi thì của câu:
Thì của các động từ trong lời nói gián tiếp thay đổi theo một nguyên tắc chung là lùi về quá khứ
Câu trực tiếp Câu gián tiếp
Hiện tại đơn -> Quá khứ đơn
Hiện tại tiếp diễn -> Quá khứ tiếp diễn
Hiện tại hoàn thành -> Quá khứ hoàn thành
Quá khứ đơn -> Quá khứ hoàn thành
Quá khứ tiếp diễn -> Quá khứ hoàn thành tiếp diễn
Tương lai đơn: will/ shall -> would/ should
Tương lai gần: be going to -> was/were going to
* Thay đổi một số động từ khuyết thiếu:
Trực tiếp Gián tiếp
can could
will would
shall should
must had to
may might
-> Trong câu gián tiếp phải biến đổi mệnh đề sau từ hỏi về dạng khẳng định.
-> Động từ giới thiệu thường sử dụng: ask, wonder, want to know
Ví dụ:
- He asked “what time will you come?”
-> He asked what time I would come.
3. Khi trong dấu ngoặc kép là câu mệnh lệnh thức.
-> Ta xét nghĩa của câu rồi sử dụng các cấu trúc cho phù hợp.
* Khi câu mệnh lệnh thức trong dấu ngoặc kép mang nghĩa yêu cầu, đề nghị ai đó làm gì ta
có thể sử dụng các cấu trúc sau:
- tell/ ask/ require/ request/ demand + sb + to do st: Yêu cầu, đề nghị hay đòi hỏi ai làm gì.
Ví dụ:
- She said to me “close the door!”
-> She asked me to close the door.
* Khi trong dấu ngoặc kép mang nghĩa ra lệnh ta sử dụng cấu trúc sau:
- order sb to do st: ra lệnh cho ai làm gì.
- He said to me angrily “go out!”.
-> He ordered me to go out.
4. Các trường hợp khác:
* Khi trong dấu ngoặc kép mang nghĩa đề nghị làm gì cho ai ta sử dụng cấu trúc:
- offer to do st:
* Khi trong dấu ngoặc kép mang nghĩa buộc tội ai đó ta sử dụng cấu trúc:
- accuse sb of st/ doing st: Buộc tội ai về điều gì/ vì đã làm gì
Ví dụ:
- She said "No one else but you did it."
-> She accused me of doing it.
