Reported Speech
is the grammar we use when we want to tell
another person about a conversation that took
place in the past.
We often use reported speech to . . .
1. Give someone a telephone message:
Example:
Example: Ellen said she couldn’t come today
because…
2. Tell someone news that we heard from
someone else:
Example:
Example: Tom told me that he and Karen got
engaged!
3. To report something that happened:
Example:
Example: Sam said that the other driver wasn’t
paying attention and hit his car.
