What is Direct and Indirect Speech Explained about?

Direct speech reports the exact words someone said, using quotation marks. Indirect speech reports the general idea of what someone said without using their exact words. There are four main rules for changing direct speech to indirect speech: 1) Change first and second person pronouns (I, me, we, us) to third person (he, she, they). 2) Change present tenses to past tenses. 3) Change place and time expressions that are current to past. 4) Modal verbs like "can", "may", "will" do not typically change
