Speech: Quoted vs. Reported

Master conveying others' words accurately and effectively.

Agenda

• Direct vs. Indirect Speech Defined

• Grammar Shifts: Tense, Pronouns, Adverbs

• Reporting Statements, Questions, Commands

• Using Nuanced Reporting Verbs

• Importance for Academic & Professional Communication

What Did They Say?

Effectively conveying someone else's words is crucial in academic and professional contexts. This involves understanding the distinction between quoting their exact statements and summarizing their message. Mastering both direct and indirect speech ensures accuracy and clarity in communication.

Quoting and summarizing: conveying others' words accurately.

Quoted Speech: Exact Words

• Exact reproduction of speaker's words.

• Always enclosed within "quotation marks."

• Ensures accuracy and clear attribution.

• Example: "That's one small step," said Armstrong.

Direct Quotation

Indirect Reporting

Direct quotation presents a speaker's exact words, enclosed within quotation marks. This method meticulously preserves the original phrasing, tone, and punctuation, offering precise attribution. For instance, a literary critic might quote Shakespeare's Hamlet saying, "To be, or not to be," to analyze the precise wording and its implications.

Indirect reporting conveys a speaker's message without using their exact words, often necessitating shifts in tense, pronouns, and adverbs. It typically employs conjunctions like 'that' or 'if' and omits quotation marks. A journalist might report that the CEO announced the company would expand its global operations, summarizing the core message for brevity and focus.

Introducing Reporting Verbs

• "Said," "told," "asked" are foundational reporting verbs.

• They attribute speech, clarifying who communicated.

• Verbs like "stated," "claimed," "argued" add nuance.

• Essential for accurate, formal academic writing.

The Tense Shift Rule

When the reporting verb is past tense, such as 'said,' the verb in the reported clause typically shifts back one tense. For example, 'I am studying' becomes 'He said he *was* studying.' This 'backshift' maintains chronological consistency, reflecting the original statement's past context.

Past tense reporting verbs cause backshift in reported speech.

Tense Shift in Action

When converting direct speech to reported speech, verb tenses typically shift backward. For example, a present simple statement like 'I **am** tired' becomes past simple: She said she **was** tired. Similarly, present continuous 'We **are studying**' transforms to past continuous: They reported they **were studying**.

Direct speech: 'I am tired.' Indirect: He said he was tired.

Verb tense shifts in reported speech: present to past.

Pronoun and Adverb Changes

• Pronouns: "I" becomes "he/she"; "we" becomes "they."

• Possessives: "my" becomes "his/her"; "our" becomes "their."

• Time adverbs: "today" becomes "that day"; "now" becomes "then."

• Place adverbs: "here" becomes "there"; "this" becomes "that."

Reporting Statements Accurately

Converting direct statements into reported speech requires careful grammatical shifts. For instance, 'I am studying now,' becomes 'He said he was studying then,' reflecting changes in tense, pronouns, and adverbs. Mastering these transformations ensures accurate and professional communication.

Sharing personal narratives through reported speech.
