 Reported Speech
When do we use reported speech?
 Sometimes someone says a sentence, for example "I'm going to the cinema tonight".
Later, maybe we want to tell someone else what the first person said.
 Here's how it works:
o We use a 'reporting verb' like 'say' or 'tell'. If this verb is in the present tense, it's easy.
We just put 'she says' and then the sentence.
o Direct speech: “I like ice cream.”
o Reported speech: She says (that) she likes ice cream.
o We do not need to change the tense, though probably we do need to change the
'person' from 'I' to 'she', for example. We also may need to change words like 'my' and
'your'.
The brackets () show ‘that’ is optional.
o If the reporting verb is in the past tense, then usually we change the tenses in the
reported speech:
Direct speech: “I like ice cream.”
Reported speech: She said (that) she liked ice cream.

Tense Direct Speech Reported Speech

present simple I like ice cream She said (that) she liked ice cream.
present continuous I am living in She said (that) she was living in London.

past simple I bought a car She said (that) she had bought a car OR She
