1定義:直接引語和間接引語:在陳述句中,直接引用說話人原來的語句,稱為直接引語。在書寫時,直接引語用引號。用自己的詞語來轉(zhuǎn)述表達原來說話人說的內(nèi)容,稱為間接引語。
2、直接引語改變?yōu)殚g接引語:
直接引語如果是陳述句,變?yōu)殚g接引語時應(yīng)注意以下各點:
①不用引號,而用連接詞that,但有時可省略。
②人稱作相應(yīng)變化;
如:She said, “I went to see Mr. Liu yesterday.” 她說:“我昨天去看過劉老師了。”
She said that she had gone to see Mr. Liu the day before. 她說那天她去看過劉老師了。
③時態(tài)的變化列表如下:

間接引語
