${\red{\bigstar}}$ For more information:

Speeches are of two types:

• When the exact words of the speaker are reproduced, the entire speech is put within inverted commas, then the speech is called reported speech or direct speech.

e.g. Ram said, " I am very angry today."

• When the meaning of a speech is conveyed in the reported words i.e. without using inverted commas and the verb said which introduces the reported speech is called the indirect speech.

e.g. Ram said that he was very angry that day.
