1. Module 11 MGL: Reported SpeechUnits: 50 (ex.2), 51 (ex. 1exam exercise, 3), 52 (ex. 2) + review exercise 2
1.1. introduction
- Reported speech = utterance is taken out of its setting and placed in a new one
express meaning not exact words
Pronouns change
Verb phrase changes
Place indication changes
Original statement is embedded in a noun clause preceded by a reported /
reporting verb
e.g., I have lived here for 20 years. He said he had lived there for 20 years.
- Reported speech is used in academic language more often than in less formal writing
which often uses direct speech
punctuation: ‘…’ or “…” traditionally after a comma (but colon is increasingly used)
when DS is followed by a phrase, such as : she said, the comma is placed before
the second inverted comma (‘…,’ she said)
1.2. patterns in reported speech
1.2.1. say, tell, think (most frequently used in informal spoken
situations)
⚠️say ≠ tell
you say something (to someone) e.g., she told us that …
you tell someone something e.g., she said that …
- reporting verb + that ?
register “that” is often omitted in spoken Eng
ALWAYS add “that” after: reply, respond, answer, shout
