In today's Lesson you will :

• learn about INDIRECT SPEECH

Goal

I understand how to use indirect speech (indirecte rede) in English. 

Indirect speech

Je gebruikt dit als je wil vertellen wat iemand anders heeft gezegd:

Jason: "I'm reading a very good book."

Jason said (that) he was reading a very good book. 

Tony: "My mum isn't home yet."

Tony said (that) his mum wasn't home yet. 

Indirect speech

Je gaat altijd een stapje terug in de tijd (want je vertelt het later):

Direct: present simple --->                  indirect: past simple

Direct: present continuous: --->        indirect: past continuous

Direct: past simple --->                         indirect: past perfect

Direct: present perfect--->                  indirect: past perfect

Let's check if you can recognize the tenses

Which of the following is the Past Simple:

1. I am walking to school
2. I walked to school
3. I have walked to school
4. I had walked to school

Which of the following is the Past Continuous

1. We are baking right now
2. We baked a cake last night
3. I had baked a cake before
4. We were baking last night

Which of the following is the Past Perfect:

1. I have met your parents
2. I met your parents
3. I have been meeting your parents
4. I had met your parents

Indirect speech: present simple

De present simple wordt indirect the past simple. 

"I don't like shopping", said Mary. 

Mary said she didn't like shopping. 

Isobel: "What is the homework for History?"

Isobel asked what the homework for History was. 

Indirect speech: present continuous

De present continuous wordt de past continuous: 

He said (that )   ->     Was/were + ww-ing

He said that ...

.... I was working. 

.... they were talking a lot. 

EXAMPLES: Present continuous 

Christoper: "I am doing my homework."

Christopher said (that) he was doing his homework. 

Daisy: "They are working a lot today." 

Daisy said (that) they were working a lot that day. 

Indirect speech: past simple

Past simple wordt de past perfect. 

Amy: "I woke up late this morning." 

Amy said (that) she had woken up late that morning." 

Jake: "I did it right away". 

Jake said (that) he had done it right away. 

Which indirect form is correct:
Amy: I am okay.

1. Amy said she is okay
2. Amy said she is being okay
3. Amy said she was okay
4. Amy said she had been okay

Which form is correct:
Trish: I am doing laundry.

1. Trish said she was doing laundry.
2. Trish is doing laundry.
