Direct speech refers to the exact words spoken by a person, written within quotation marks. It reproduces the speaker’s original words as they were spoken.
Indirect speech (or reported speech) refers to reporting what someone said without quoting them exactly. The words are often paraphrased and adjusted to fit grammatical structure, especially in tense, pronouns, time expressions, etc.
Explanation:
· “Would you like” → if she would like
· “I am planning” → I was planning (backshifting due to “said”)
· Reporting verb “said” changes to “asked” for interrogative form.
Grammatical Rule Used:
In reported questions:
· “Would you like” becomes “if she would like”
· Present continuous changes to past continuous or simple past
· Pronouns are adjusted accordingly
Example:
· Direct: “Would you help me?” he asked.
· Indirect: He asked if I would help him.
