Косвенная речь

Reported speech

I.Прямая речь (Direct Speech) – это непосредственные слова говорящего, передаваемые без изменений. На письме прямая речь заключается в кавычки, которые в английском языке ставятся вверху строки:

John says, “I am sure everything will be all right.” – Джон говорит: «Я уверен, что все будет хорошо».

John said, “I am sure everything will be all right.” – Джон сказал: «Я уверен, что все будет хорошо».

Косвенная речь (Reported Speech) передает речь путем пересказа в виде дополнительных придаточных предложений:

John says that he is sure that everything will be all right. – Джон говорит, что уверен, что все будет хорошо.

John said that he was sure that everything would be all right. Джон сказал, что уверен, что все будет хорошо.

II. При переводе прямой речи в косвенную необходимо соблюдать ряд правил.

При переводе прямой речи в косвенную личные и притяжательные местоимения меняются соответственно смыслу:

He said, “I am busy.” – Он сказал: «Я занят.» " He said that he was busy. – Он сказал, что он занят.

Lillian said, “My sister speaks French well.” – Лилиан сказала: « Моя сестра хорошо говорит по-французски.» " Lillian said that her sister spoke French well. – Лилиан сказала, чтоее сестра хорошо говорит по-французски.

Если глагол, вводящий косвенную речь, употреблен в одном из прошедших времен, то в предложении действует правило согласования времен.

He said, “I am busy.” " He said that he was busy.

He said, “I was busy.” " He said that he had been busy.

He said, “I will be busy.” " He said that he would be busy.
