Direct and reported speech(понятие прямой и косвенной речи)
Прямая речь – это речь переданная дословно, без изменений. Перед прямой речью или после нее стоит предложение, вводящее в прямую речь:
Том говорит Бену: «Я хочу обедать»
Tom tells Ben, “I want to have lunch”
Косвенная речь – это способ передачи чужой речи. Она представляет собой придаточное предложение, которому предшествует главное или следует за ним:
Том говорит Бену что хочет обедать.
Tom tells Ben that he wants to have lunch.
Не said, "I don't know."
Не says, "I don't know."
Не will say, "I don't know."
В прямой речи время глагола не зависит от времени в водной части, так как полностью сохраняется форма высказывания чужой речи:
Не says, "I don't know." → Не says he doesn't know.
Не will say, "I don't know." → Не will say he doesn't know.
Не says, "I didn't know." → Не says he didn't know.
Не will say, "I didn't know." → Не will say he didn't know.
Если глагол вводной части находится в форме настоящего времени или указывает на действие в будущем, то при преобразовании прямой речи в косвенную, время глагола чужой речи остается неизменным.
Не said, "I know." → Не said he knew.
Не said, "I must know." → Не said he had to know.
Не said, "I will know." → Не said he would know.
Не said, "I knew." → Не said he had known.
Если глагол вводной части находится в форме прошедшего времени, то при преобразовании прямой речи в косвенную учитывается правило согласования времен.
