What is Reported Speech and Time Shifts about?
The document discusses changes that must be made when converting direct speech to reported or indirect speech in Spanish. It notes that verbs must change tense according to the surrounding sentence. Pronouns and possessive adjectives must also change to agree with the new subject. Words referring to time and location must be altered to be consistent with the new tense, such as "today" becoming "that day" or "tomorrow" becoming "the following day".
