direct and indirect
Answers
Answer:
Direct Speech is from the speaker’s standpoint, whereas indirect speech is from the listener’s standpoint. Direct speech is when we use the exact rendition of the words of the speaker. Conversely, in an indirect speech own words are used to report the speaker’s statement.
