What is Understanding Indirect Speech Rules about?
The document discusses indirect speech and how to report what people say. It explains that: 1) When reporting present time statements, the tenses are not changed but past reporting verbs require changing tenses to the past. 2) Modals like "can" and "may" change to "could" and "might" but modals like "would" remain the same. 3) Questions are reported using "if" or "whether" without inversion and the tenses are changed following past reporting verbs.
