There are two types of speeches ----
1. Direct speech or Direct narration
2. Indirect speech or Indirect narration
1. Direct speech :-
What a man says is kept as it is within a quotation (" ") marks. A sentence containing such a quote is called the DIRECT SPEECH or DIRECT NARRATION.
➩ The direct speech is always enclosed with inverted commas (" ")
➩ There is no change in words.
Example : He said, " Let us drop the matter ."
2. Indirect speech :-
Sometimes the exact speech of a speaker is not repeated but reported. Such a speech is called INDIRECT SPEECH or INDIRECT NARRATION.
➩ We change a sentence in indirect speech without using first person's actual words.
➩ This is also known as reported speech.
➩ We change it into the past tense.
Example: He proposed that we should drop the matter.
