REPORTED SPEECH (COMMANDS – REQUESTS)

We use reported speech when we report the
meaning of what somebody said, but not with the
exact words.

When we repeat the exact words that someone said, we
usually use the verb say and put the words in qutation
marks. This is called Direct Speech
Martin said “call Mr. Roberts at the office”

We usually use tell when we report commands
and ask when we report requests

the verb
