Improve your English grammar, vocabulary, and communication skills.
Welcome to Lesson 36 in our comprehensive Spoken English program. Today, we focus on Direct Speech vs Reported Speech Rules, which is a critical module under Direct-Indirect training.
When reporting what someone else said, shift tenses back. Direct: 'I am ready.' Reported: 'He said that he was ready.' Pronouns and time expressions change according to the context.
Try constructing three sentences using the principles taught in this lesson. Record your voice reading them out loud to check your flow and pronunciation. To get professional feedback from certified language tutors, consider scheduling a private 1-to-1 online demo session with Xello English today.
