PART I. RULES OF REPORTING

1. REPORTING STATEMENTS

When the statement in direct speech is converted into reported speech the following rules must be observed:

♦ If the verb to say introducing the indirect statement is followed by an object, use the preposition to (to say to smb.), though the expression to tell smb . is more preferable in this case.


Tom said, “I"m awfully tired.”	Tom said that he was awfully tired.
Tom said to Bob, “I"m awfully	Tom said to Bob that he was awfully

	Or: Tom told Bob that he was aw-

To say is usually used without an object to introduce the subordinate clause while to tell is followed by a direct object. Compare:

¾ She told me that she would be late.

¾ She said that she would be late.

The verb to tell can be a part of set expressions where a direct object can be omitted: to tell (somebody) a lie; to tell (somebody) a story; to tell fortunes (= to say what will happen to somebody in the future).

♦ No inverted commas are used in the reported statements.

♦ All personal and possessive pronouns are changed according to the person referring to the speaker.

♦ So and such are replaced by very, exceedingly etc. In exclamatory sentences:


She said, “Jane plays the pi-	She said Jane played the piano very

She said, “Jane is such a	She said Jane was an exceedingly
good pianist!”	(very) good pianist.

♦ The rules of the sequence of tenses are observed in the reported statements:


The Present Indefinite	The Past Indefinite
“I like peaches.”	He said he liked peaches.
The Present Continuous	The Past Continuous
“Is it raining?”	He asked if it was raining.
The Past I ndefinite	The Pas t Perfect
“I didn"t recognize you.”	She explained that she hadn"t recognized

The Present Perfect	The Past Perfect
“You"ve annoyed the dog.”	I told her she had annoyed the dog.
The Past Continuous	The Past Continuous or the Past Perfect
“I was joking about the	Continuous : He said he was joking (or:
	he had been joking) about the price.
The Past Perfect	The Past Perfect
“I hadn"t seen her before.”	You said you hadn"t seen her before that

The Future Indefinite	The Future-Indefinite-in-the-Past
“We"ll be late.”	I was afraid we should (would) be late.

♦ If the time or the place of the events described in the direct statement has changed, replace the demonstrative pronouns and the adverbs of time and place in the following way:



	that day, at the time

the day after tomorrow	two days later, in two days" time
	the day before, on the previous day
the day before yesterday

	the next year, the following year
	the previous week/year




	the other/previous night

Note : In the sentences like: I said, “I"ll be here tomorrow.” (Я ска-

зал: «Я буду здесь завтра».) the adverbs here and tomorrow may stay unchanged if the statement is reported on the same day and at the same place: I said I would be here tomorrow. Notice that it is also correct to change the adverbs according to the rule mentioned above: I said I"d be there the following day.

♦ If the statement consists of a few clauses referring to the past, only the verb of the first clause is used in Past Perfect.


John: Tom has done all his	John said that Tom had done all
homework. He did it before go-	his homework. He did it before
ing to the concert.	going to the concert.

2. QUESTIONS IN REPORTED SPEECH

Word order in a reported question is the same as in a statement. ♦ A reported general question is introduced by the conjunc-

tion if or whether (before which there is no comma!):


Robert: Does it often rain in your	Robert asked if it often rained in
part of the country?	their part of the country.
Helen: Have you seen this film	Helen wanted to know if Peter
	had already seen that film.

♦ A reported special question is introduced by the same adverb or pronoun that introduces a direct question:


Tom said to the boys, “Who has	Tom asked the boys who had
tickets for “Hamlet?”	tickets for “Hamlet.”
John: Why are you late, Mary?	John wanted to know why Mary

♦ If a direct question to the subject contains the link verb to be, the direct order of words is not always strictly observed:

¾ Robert said,	Robert asked Bob	what his telephone number

		what was his telephone

In set expressions like “What"s the time?”, “What"s the matter?”, “What"s the news!” inverted word order doesn"t change in reported speech.

♦ Reported questions are generally introduced by the following verbs and word combinations: to question; to inquire (more official than to “ask”); to want to know; I wonder; I"d like to know; Can you tell me and etc.

Short answers in reported speech

Short answers are converted into reported speech by repeating of the auxiliary or modal verb that a direct short answer contains. An auxiliary verb changes according to the rules of the sequence of tenses.


	Frank: Has it stopped raining,	Frank asked Polly if it had
	Frank: Has it stopped raining,	stopped raining and she said it
	yet? Polly: Yes.	stopped raining and she said it
	yet? Polly: Yes.

	Mary: Does John ever come to	Mary asked Bob if John ever
	Mary: Does John ever come to	came to see him and Bob said he
	see you? Bob: Never.	came to see him and Bob said he
	see you? Bob: Never.

	Bob: Are you very tired, Mary?	Bob asked Mary if she was tired
		and Mary answered she wasn"t.

Reporting elliptical sentences

If some parts of the sentence are missing, they should be restored according to the situation in the reported speech.


Mrs. Armstrong: I say, Peter. Do	Mrs. Armstrong told her hus-
	band sensational news. She
know the latest sensation? The	said the Browns were applying

are applying for a divorce.	Mr. Armstrong was very much
Mr. Armstrong: Sounds incredi-	surprised and said it sounded
	incredible, for the Browns had
seemed so attached to each other.	seemed very attached to each

Mrs. Armstrong: Never expected	His wife said she had never
	expected it herself.
Nick: Feeling out of sorts?	Nick asked Michael why he
Michael: Rather.	was feeling out of sorts.
Nick: Private trouble?	Michael said it was because of
Michael: Yes, the children are	the children. They were getting
getting unmanageable.

3. REPORTED ORDERS AND REQUESTS

An order or a request in reported speech is expressed by an infinitive; in a negative sentence the particle to precedes the infinitive.

Orders and requests are introduced into reported speech with the help of one of the following verbs: to tell, to order, to command, to ask, to request, to beg and others. The choice of the verb is determined by the character of the order (request).

♦ The verb most commonly used to introduce reported orders is the verb to tell: the verb to order is frequently used, occasionally also the verb to command. The verb to tell corresponds to the Russian сказать, чтобы and велеть; to order and to command correspond to

приказать.

♦ The verb to request is used in official style, chiefly in the Passive Voice. It is best rendered in Russian by предложить. The verb to request introduces rather a veiled order than a request.

♦ Unemotional requests are usually introduced by the verb to

♦ The verb to beg introduces a request somewhat more emo-

♦ Emotional (emphatic) requests are introduced by the verbs to implore, to entreat, to beseech (умолять).

♦ The verb to urge introduces a request made with great insis-


The doctor said to the patient,	The doctor told the patient to
“Keep the bed for some days.”	keep the bed for some days.

mind ringing me up at nine?”

take care of yourself!”	take care of himself.

The following phrases used in greetings and saying good-by (It "s good to see you; See you soon; Very good of you to come and etc.) may not be reported at all.

	He bade Helen good-bye.
	He took leave of Helen.
	He took his leave.

To report someone"s words used to introduce a person to another one the verb “to introduce” is used:


Mary: Mother, this is	Mary introduced Mr. Prinston to

To report someone"s words used in response to someone"s invitation the following phrases are used: he readily accepted the invitation; said he "d come most willingly; said she would be happy to…; declined the invitation and etc.:

Mr. Jackson: Come and have lunch with us on Sunday.

Mr. Black: I"d love to. Thank you very much.

Mrs. Parker: Can you come to dinner tomorrow? Mr. Eden: I"m sorry I can"t. I"m leaving tonight.

	him with the bike.
Tom: Oh, that"s all right.
Mr. Jackson: Thank you ever so	Mr. Jackson expressed his grati-

rude! It"s really unforgivable.

Offers and advice are rendered in reported speech with the help of the following verbs: to suggest, to offer, to advise.

The verbs “to suggest” and “to offer” are a little different in meaning, which is reflected in the corresponding sentence structures. “То offer” is used when the speaker is willing to fulfill an action by himself: Не offered to see Mary home. Besides, “to offer” is used when they tell about something material: a cup of tea, a cigarette etc. “To suggest” is used when they tell about some idea, advice.


Nick: Let"s walk home, Mary.	Nick suggested to Mary that
	they should walk home.

In response to offers in the reported speech the following

phrases can be used:


¾ He	¾ He	strongly objected to his

		refused point blank.
		said he had better not.
		said he needn"t.

To decline an offer sounds more polite than to turn down and to reject an offer; said he had better not…and said he needn"t… are typical to the spoken language, which is less formal.


Mr. Smith: I can drive you home	Mr. Smith offered to drive Ben
in my car, Ben. Ben: It"s very	home in his car and Ben will-
	ingly accepted the offer (but Ben

5. MODAL VERBS IN REPORTED SPEECH

When the sentences with modal verbs are converted into reported speech, modal verbs undergo the following changes:

Must , as a rule, remains unchanged in reported speech if it expresses advice (order) or a supposition bordering on assurance (должно быть).

Must is generally replaced by had to if it expresses necessity arising out of circumstances.


She said to him, “You must be	She told him he must be more
more careful.” (advice)
She said, “You must be very	She said he must be very fond of
fond of music if you go to con-	music if he went to concerts so
certs so often.” (supposition)
She said, “I must get up early	She said she had to get up early
every morning.”

When sentences containing the Subjunctive Mood are converted into reported speech, the form of the verb usually remains unchanged.

♦ However, there is a case when the rule of the sequence of tenses is observed: if we have the analytical subjunctive with the mood auxiliary may , may is changed into might if the verb in the principal clause stands in a past tense.


“I would be discharged if I were		She said that she would be dis-
		charged if she were seen talking

7. VERBS USED TO CONVERT STATEMENTS

ИЗМЕНЕНИЯ ПРИ УПОТРЕБЛЕНИИ КОСВЕННОЙ РЕЧИ

Must меняется на had to

Can на could

Shall на should

Will на would

Для лучшего усвоения рассмотрим следующие примеры:

‘We must go to school to class.’ - They said they had to go school to class.

‘I can’t paint picture.’ - She said she couldn’t paint picture.

‘I will see my mother soon.’ - He said he would see his mom soon.

‘I shall buy the bread.’ - She said she should buy the bread.

Слова, употребляемые в прямой речи, могут меняться при использовании косвенной следующим образом:

Ago – previously, before;

Yesterday – the day before;

Today – that day;

That/this – the;

On/next Friday – the following Friday;

Last month – the previous month;

The day after tomorrow – in two days’ time;

This weekend – that weekend;

Here – there;

Tomorrow – the following day / the next day;

Tonight – that night;

Рассмотрим изменение слов на примере предложений

‘I`ll drink milk tomorrow.’ – He said he`d drink milk the next day.

‘I saw Mr. Freeman today.’ - She said she’d seen Mr. Freeman that day.

‘I don`t like this lesson.’ - He said he didn`t like that lesson.

‘I met Andy about two weeks ago.’ - She said she had met Andy about two weeks before.

‘We visited our grandparents last Monday.’ - They said they had visited their grandparents the previous Monday.

Безусловно, нельзя заменять слова подобным образом во всех предложениях. Подобная замена имеет место только там, где она уместна и подходит по смыслу.

Так, например, рассмотрим предложение: She said, ‘I like to live here.’ Предположим, что она говорит о Лондоне. В косвенной речи ее слова можно передать по-разному:

She said she liked to live there – она говорит, что ей нравится жить там. (Соответственно предполагается, что вы сами не проживаете в Лондоне)

She said she liked to live here – она говорит, что ей нравится жить здесь. (Получается, что и вы проживаете, или на данный момент находитесь в этом городе)

На одном простом примере становится понятно, что переводя прямую речь в косвенную, просто необходимо обращать внимание на внешние обстоятельства и уже затем делать выводы, уместным ли будет то или иное слово или фраза.

При образовании косвенной речи из прямой, такие глаголы как ought to (должны), would, might, could, should – не изменяются.

ПРИМЕНЕНИЕ КОСВЕННОЙ РЕЧИ С WH–ВОПРОСАМИ.

Следует сразу отметить что wh–вопросы , это те, которые начинаются со следующих слов: Why, Where, Who, When, What и другие, начинающиеся на буквы wh.

Следует отметить, что большое количество вопросов в косвенной речи, начинается после основного глагола, который употребляется в прошедшем времени (Past Tense). Что же касается самого вопроса, то время в нем изменяется согласно вышеуказанным правилам образования времен.

Порядок расстановки слов в вопросах, которые относятся к косвенной речи, меняется:

‘What`s the time?’ - She asked what time it was. – правильносформулированноепредложение.

Неправильнобудеттак: She asked what was the time.

«How’s your grandmother? » - He asked me how my mother was. - правильнаярасстановкаслов.

Неправильныйвариант: He asked me how was my mother.

Глагол «to ask» (спросить), применяется в косвенной речи как с объектом, так и без него:

He asked me how my mom was.

He asked how my mom was.

Приведем еще несколько примеров для закрепления этого материала:

‘How did you get to home?’ - He asked how I had got to home.

‘Where do you live?’ - The friend wanted to know where I lived.

‘Why are you so early?’ - The doctor demanded to know why I was so early.

IF И WHETHER ПРИ КОСВЕННОЙ РЕЧИ

If и whether в косвенной речи употребляются только с общими вопросами (не с wh–вопросами), на которые могут быть только два ответа: нет или да.

При построении общих вопросов, используются все вышеуказанные правила, касающиеся согласования времен.

Whether, как и If, в английском языке обозначает частицу «ли».

Стоит отметить, что порядок слов в общих вопросах косвенной речи меняется, например:

‘Are you tired?’ - She asked if I was tired. (Она спросила, была ли я уставшая).

‘Did you read the book?’ - He asked whether I had read the book.(Онспросилменя, читаллияэтукнигу).

‘Have you finished your job?’ - He asked if I had finished my job. (Он спросил, закончила ли я свою работу).

ПРИМЕНЕНИЕ КОМАНД (ПРИКАЗОВ) В КОСВЕННОЙ РЕЧИ

При приказе (команде) в косвенной речи употребляется сначала основной глагол, затем объект и инфинитив:

‘Stop!’ - She told the student to stop.

‘Break!’ - He told the boxer to break.

Что же касается отрицательной формы, то порядок слов тот же, за исключением того что перед инфинитивом ставится частичка «not». Например:

‘Don`t sleep here!’ - The teacher ordered the student not to sleep there.

‘Don`t go!’ - She told him not to go.

Tell, warn, instruct, order, command– основные глаголы, которые чаще всего встречаются в приказах косвенной речи.

УПОТРЕБЛЕНИЕ ПРОСЬБЫ (ЗАПРОСА) В КОСВЕННОЙ РЕЧИ.

Предложения. в которых мы употребляем запрос, несут в себе обращение к человеку с просьбой о чем-либо.

Would и could – слова, с которых начинаются запросы в прямой речи.

To ask (просить, спрашивать) – основной глагол, с которого, как правило, начинается запрос в косвенной речи.

‘Would you close the window, please?’ - He asked me to close the window. .

‘Could you pour me water, please?’ – He asked me to pour him water.

Но! Следует обратить внимание на то, что ни в коем случае нельзя путать просьбу с приказом, иначе вас могут неправильно понять.

Например:

He told me to give him the book – онвелелмнеотдатьемукнигу;

He asked me to give him the book – онпопросилменядатьемукнигу.

Помимо того, что необходимо различать приказ от просьбы, еще необходимо различать предложение от просьбы.

Так, например, предложение будет звучать следующим образом:

‘Would you like a cake? » – He asked if I would like a cake. («Хочешь пирог?» - он спросил, хочу ли я пирога).

Просьба же будет звучать чуть иначе:

«Would you pass me a cake?» – He asked me to pass him a cake.(«Можете передать мне пирог?» - он попросил меня передать ему пирог).
