• Direct speech is where the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in his own actual words without any change.
• Indirect speech is where the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in our own words.

❥If the reporting verb is in the past tense, then the direct sentence is changed to its past tense.

❥The tense of direct speech remains unchanged when the reporting verb is in the present or future tense.

❥If the direct sentence contains the universal truth, then it remains unchanged in the indirect speech.
