Reported Speech

He asked me if I knew the way.

Explanation:

  • Narration in English Language involves two types of narrative modes- the direct speech and the indirect or reported speech.
  • In the direct speech the actual words of the speaker are quoted within double inverted commas.
  • The given sentence is in the direct speech : He said to me,  " Do you know the way​?"
  • The speaker is 'he', the person spoken to is 'me'.
  • Indirect or reported speech on the other hand narrates or reports the quoted words in the third person.
  • Instead of the punctuation marks denoting the speaker's tone of expression reporting verbs are used.
  • Since the sentence in the direct speech ended with a question mark, it can be regarded as an interrogative sentence.
  • In indirect speech the reporting verb 'asked' is used and the sentence changes to :   He asked me if I knew the way.
