Косвенная (непрямая) речь 1 (He said that...)

Урок 47
A

Изучите следующую ситуацию:

Вы хотите сообщить кому-нибудь о том, что сказал Пол. Есть два способа это сделать:

Вы можете повторить слова Пола (direct speech - прямая речь):
Paul said, ‘I’m feeling ill.’

Или вы можете использовать reported speech - косвенную (непрямую) речь:
Paul said that he was feeling ill.

Сравните?

прямая
косвенная
B

В косвенной речи основной глагол (Paul said that ... / I told her that ... и др.) и остальная часть предложения обычно находятся в прошедшем времени:

  • Paul said that he was feeling ill.
    Пол сказал, что он плохо себя чувствовал.
  • I told Lisa that I didn’t have any money.
    Я сказал Лизе, что у меня не было денег.

That можно и не использовать, т.е. вы можете сказать:

  • Paul said that he was feeling ill. или Paul said he was feeling ill.

Как правило, форма настоящего времени в прямой речи изменяется на форму прошедшего времени в косвенной речи:

am/is → was
are → were
do/does → did
have/has → had
will → would
can → could

want/like/know/go etc. → wanted/liked/knew/went etc.

Сравните прямую и косвенную речь:

Вы встретили Дженни. Вот кое-что из того, что она сказала в прямой речи:

Позже вы сообщаете кому-то о том, что сказала Дженни, используя косвенную речь:

‘My parents are very well.’

Jenny said that her parents were very well.

‘I’m going to learn to drive.’

She said that she was going to learn to drive.

‘I want to buy a car.’

She said that she wanted to buy a car.

‘John has a new job.’

She said that John had a new job.

‘I can’t come to the party on Friday.’

She said that she couldn’t come to the party on Friday.

‘I don’t have much free time.’

She said she didn’t have much free time.

I’m going away for a few days. I’ll phone you when I get back.’

She said that she was going away for a few days and would phone me when she got back.

C

The past simple (did/saw/knew и т.д.) обычно может оставаться таким же и в косвенной речи, или вы можете изменить его на the past perfect (had done / had seen / had known и т.д.):

direct

Paul said: ‘I woke up feeling ill, so I didn’t go to work.’

reported

Paul said (that) he woke up feeling ill, so he didn’t go to work. или
Paul said (that) he had woken up feeling ill, so he hadn’t gone to work.
