Передача повествовательных предложений в косвенной речи (индиректная речь) требует некоторых изменений как во времени глаголов, так и в структуре предложения. В английском языке есть несколько правил, которые необходимо учитывать:
- Правило согласования времен: В косвенной речи время глагола в придаточном предложении обычно смещается на одно время назад по сравнению с прямой речью.
- Изменение местоимений: Местоимения и притяжательные прилагательные также изменяются в зависимости от того, кто говорит и кому адресовано высказывание.
- Изменение наречий времени и места: Например, "today" меняется на "that day", "now" на "then", и т.д.
