Question

Hi .How are you all? Can anyone define direct and indirect speech.

Answer 1

Answer:

Direct speech describes when something is being repeated exactly as it was – usually in between a pair of inverted commas. ... Indirect speech will still share the same information – but instead of expressing someone's comments or speech by directly repeating them, it involves reporting or describing what was said.

Answer 2

Answer:

1)Direct speech is a report of the exact words used by a speaker or writer. The words spoken appear within inverted commas “......” and should be exactly word to word as spoken or written.

किसी द्वारा बोले गए वाक्य को ज्यों का त्यों लिख देना या बताना प्रत्यक्ष वाक्य (या direct speech) कहलाता है।

2)When we report what someone said in our own words, it is called Indirect speech. We do not use inverted commas, do not write the exact words as spoken or written by someone.

किसी द्वारा बोले गए शब्दों को अपने शब्दों में कहना परोक्ष वाक्य (या indirect speech) कहलाता है।
