Reported Speech

Apuntes

Reported Speech Reported speech is when we say what someone said without using their exact words. Pronouns change (I → he/she; my → his/her). Tenses usually move one step back (am → was, will → would, can → could). Time/place words change (today → that day, tomorrow → the next day, here → there). Yes/No questions use if/whether; WH-questions keep the WH-word and no question mark. Commands/requests use to + verb (He told me to sit down). Remove quotation marks and keep normal sentence order.
