Tugas Softskill Bahasa Inggris2# ( Pengulangan )


1.   Writing about theory of quoted speech and reported speech

·         Quoted speech
Direct or quoted speech is a sentence (or several sentences) that reports speech or thought in its original form, as phrased by the first speaker. It is usually enclosed in quotation marks. The cited speaker is either mentioned in the inquit (Latin "he says") or implied.

Examples

  • He said, "It's raining."
  • "It's raining," he thought.
  • "It's cold outside," he said, "and it's starting to rain."
  • "How is the weather?" — "It's cold outside." — "Yes, and it's starting to rain."

Comparison between direct, indirect and free indirect speech

  • Quoted or direct speech:
He laid down his bundle and thought of his misfortune. "And just what pleasure have I found, since I came into this world?" he asked.
He laid down his bundle and thought of his misfortune. He asked himself what pleasure he had found since he came into the world.


·         Reported speech

Indirect speech, also called reported speech  is a means of expressing the content of statements, questions or other utterances, without quoting them explicitly as is done in direct speech. For example, He said "I'm coming" is direct speech, whereas He said he was coming is indirect speech.
In terms of grammar, indirect speech often makes use of certain syntactic structures such as content clauses ("that" clauses, such as (that) he was coming), and sometimes infinitive phrases. References to questions in indirect speech frequently take the form of interrogative content clauses, also called indirect questions (such as whether he was coming).
In indirect speech certain grammatical categories are changed relative to the words of the original sentence. For example, person may change as a result of a change of speaker or listener (as I changes to he in the example above). In some languages, including English, the tense of verbs is often changed – this is often called sequence of tenses. Some languages have a change of mood
When written, indirect speech is not normally enclosed in quotation marks or any similar typographical devices for indicating that a direct quotation is being made. However such devices are sometimes used to indicate that the indirect speech is a faithful quotation of someone's words (with additional devices such as square brackets and ellipses to indicate deviations or omissions from those words), as in He informed us that "after dinner [he] would like to make an announcement".

Examples


·  t is raining hard.
She says that it is raining hard. (no change)
She said that it was raining hard. (change of tense when the main verb is past tense)
·  I have painted the ceiling blue.
He said that he had painted the ceiling blue. (change of person and tense)
·  I will come to your party tomorrow.
I said that I would come to his party the next day. (change of tense, person and time expression)
·  How do people manage to live in this city?
I asked him how people managed to live in that city. (change of tense and question syntax, and of demonstrative)
·  Please leave the room.
I asked them to leave the room. (use of infinitive phrase)
