Direct and Indirect Speech

• Direct speech refers to the sentences spoken directly by the speaker. Indirect speech refers to the statements reported by someone else.

• Although the tense of the reporting verb is simple past tense, this sentence remains in the simple present tense in the indirect speech.

• It happens because the subordinate clause is a universal truth.
