Explanation:
Voice:
It is often necessary to explain events or actions that have taken place, and this often involves repeating what someone has said. Such opportunities include business emails and presentations as well as social situations. There are two different types of speech to describe what people said: direct speech and indirect speech (or reported speech).
Direct Speech:
When you want to explain what someone said, one way is to use direct speech. You use direct speech when you simply repeat what someone is saying and surround the phrase with punctuation marks.
Indirect Speech:
If you want to recite what someone said without any linguistic cues and without necessarily using the exact same words, you can use indirect (also known as reported) speech.
