what are direct And indirect speech
Answers
Answer:
Direct or quoted speech is spoken or written text that reports speech or thought in its original form phrased by the original speaker; in narrative, it is usually enclosed in quotation marks, but could be enclosed in guillemet. The cited speaker is either mentioned in the inquit or implied.
Indirect speech is a means of expressing the content of statements, questions or other utterances, without quoting them explicitly as is done in direct speech. For example, He said "I'm coming" is direct speech, whereas He said he was coming is indirect speech.
Indirect Speech: In indirect speech, the actual words of the speaker are changed. ... The word 'that' will be used before the spoken-words of the speaker. Example: Direct Speech: He said, “I am going to School” Indirect Speech: He said that he was going to school.......☺
