Pasti udah tau kan kita akan ngebahas apa hari ini..
Yap..Kita akan ngebahas tentang Direct and Indirect speech.
Untuk lebih jelasnya baca aja ya...
Direct speech is refers to reproducing another person's excact word. We use question marks.
Indirect speech is refers to reproducing the idea of another person's word.Example :
1. Comand / request
Direct : Mrs. Chandra said to Vita "Don't wory about it."
Indirect : Mrs. Chandra told Vita not to wory about it.
2. Question
Direct : Vita asked "Are you a journalist?"
Indirect : Vita asked if / whether I was journalist.
3. Statement
Direct : Mr. Chandra said "I worked hard yesterday."
Indirect : Mr. Chandra said that he worked hard the day before
In comand sentences, direct speech can changed to indirect speech with change "Said" to be "Ordered", "Told", and "Forbade".
Example :
1. Direct : Hamid said, "Open the door!"
Indirect : Hamid ordered to open the door.
2. Direct : Hamid said, "Sinta, come here!"
Indirect : Hamid told Sinta to come here.
3. Direct : Hamid said to Andi, "Do not disturb me!"
Indirect : Hamid forbade Andi to disturb him.
