Reported speech is used to tell someone what another person said without using their exact words. It involves changing verb tenses, pronouns, and time/place references based on rules. For example, "I am hungry" would become "He said that he was hungry." Reported speech is used for statements, questions, commands, suggestions and other sentence types. Care must be taken to accurately change verbs and pronouns when moving speech from direct to indirect.

Introductory verbs: the verb ¡°say¡± may introduced commands in direct speech but it must be changed to a verb of command in reported speech, e.g.: beg, command, forbid, order, tell, know, ask... + personal object without preposition. Indirect commands are usually expressed by -a verb of command + object without -preposition + to infinitive. Negative commands are usually reported by - not + to infinitive. When we turn a command into reported speech, it is necessary to change the pronouns and possessive adjectives and adverbs of time and place as in the statements. COMMANDS OR ORDERS VERBS
