REPORTED SPEECH: WHAT IT IS AND HOW TO USE IT


What is the reported speech? Have you ever written something that you have paraphrased or do not mention exactly? If so, you've probably used the indirect style, also known as reported speech in English. The indirect or reported speech style is the way you can tell, explain, write or say something in your own words, changing the verb tense to the past. It differs from direct speech in this way, since direct speech implies that you say or write everything verbatim and exactly how it happened.

Rules for using reported speech
To use it, you have to take into account some simple rules.

Rule No. 1: You must learn that, in reported speech, verb tenses change.

That is, in direct speech or in direct style, all verb tense expressions are in the present tense. But when you use the indirect or reported speech style this verb changes to the past tense. However, there are two exceptions that you will see later.


 for example:


“I am very glad to see you again”, carlos said.

reported speech 

carlos said that he was glad to see me again.



Rule # 2: The verb tenses of modal verbs, also known as modal verbs in English, also change.


As mentioned above, verb tenses change once you switch from direct to indirect style, and modal verbs don't escape this either, except would, could, should, might, and ought to.

example: 
“You must finish your homework”, dad said

reported speech 

Dad said I had to finish my homework.

The first time I was involved in a car wreck was when I was seventeen (17) years old. I was making a left turn onto a two-lane road that was separated by a turn lane. After being waved through by a kindly driver who was waiting for a red traffic signal, I attempted to slowly pull into the center turn lane. Unfortunately, a young woman attempting to make her pizza delivery “within thirty minutes” was illegally speeding down the turn lane and demolished the front passenger-side quarter panel of her car on the very tip of my front bumper. Five or six scratches on the front of my car compared to the severe damage to this pizza delivery person’s vehicle.

My first mistake was not immediately calling the authorities and reporting the crash. Instead, I chose to pull out of the roadway so that the traffic could get through. Once we’d pulled off the roadway the pizza delivery driver wanted to get to her delivery, so she suggested we’d trade information and be on our way and I agreed.  Never, ever make such a mistake. A host of vehicles in the area and a quick description of the accident would have led most police officers to assign blame on the pizza driver for illegally using a turn lane to circumvent traffic. Instead, I was blamed for the accident and my insurance rates went through the roof. Although police accident reports are generally inadmissible at trial, they are essential to the insurance carriers assigning liability.

opinion

i think the woman should be more responsible at the steering  wheel , be more aware of traffic lights and not be so imprudent

                                                       THE HUMAN LIGHTNING ROD 

Shenandoah National Park ranger, Roy Sullivan, holds the Guinness World Record for being struck by lightning more times than any other person.

In the time between 1942 and 1977, Roy was hit by lightning on SEVEN separate occasions and survived them all, gaining the nickname of the 'Human Lightning Rod'.

Roy soon started to believe that an otherworldly force was out to destroy him and developed a major fear of death. He might have had a point. On June 5, 1976, he was struck for the sixth time after trying to outrun a storm that he said was chasing him.

Roy committed suicide aged 71 over an unrequited love, but his legacy for lightning survival lives on.

According to statistics, the odds of being hit by lightning once in your lifetime are 10,000/1, making the odds of being hit seven times an unfathomable 1:1028 - that's one followed by 28 zeros!

opinion:
i think that man spent the luck of his whole life in those incidents , you won't let me lie , another curiosity about this man , several weeks later a lightning strikes his grave

a belief or notion, not based on reason or knowledge, in or of the ominous significance of a particular thing, circumstance, occurrence, proceeding, or the like.

Examples

Don't Go Right Home After a Funeral

A Filipino tradition called "pagpag" dictates that people never go straight back to the house after a wake. Otherwise a bad spirit might tag along and come inside. Mourners will make a stop at a restaurant or store first just in case.

Itchy Hands Have Financial Repercussions

In Turkey, an itchy right hand means you'll come into some money but an itch on your left means you'll lose money.

Don't Get a Haircut on Tuesdays

Reconsider your #TransformationTuesday plans. Getting a haircut on a Tuesday in India will cause bad luck, based on legend.
