1. “Say” and “tell”
Reported Speech is the exact meaning of what someone said but not the exact words. Note the difference between “say” and “tell” in Reported Speech: we say something and tell somebody:
e.g. “I can fix it,” he said. → He said that he could fix it.
e.g. “I can do it,” he said to me. → He told me that he could do it.
There are set expressions with “say” and “tell”:
Say |

Say good morning/evening, say one’s prayers, say a few words, say so, say no more, say for certain |
Tell the truth, tell a lie, tell smbd the time, tell smbd one’s name, tell a story, tell a secret, tell smbd the way, tell one from another, tell smbd’s fortune, tell smbd so, tell the difference |

2. Reported statements
We can report statements, questions and commands. Personal pronouns and possessive adjectives change according to the context:
e.g. “I will show you my new dress,” she said. → She said that she would show me her new dress.
2.1 Write these sentences in Reported Speech, using the words given. Remember to change the pronouns where necessary:
1. 'I haven't done my homework.' (she says) – She says she hasn't done her homework.
2. 'I haven't got any money.' (He'll tell you) – He'll tell you he hasn't got any money.

10. 'My brother's arriving here today.' She said her brother was arriving ____.

e.g. “The station is far from here,” he says. → He says (that) the station is far from here.
When the reporting verb is in the past, we should change the tenses into a past form:
Direct Speech |
Reported Speech |
Present Simple →
“I work hard,” he said. |
Past Simple
He said (that) he worked hard. |
Present Continuous →
“I am working hard,” he said. |
Past Continuous
He said (that) he was working hard. |
Present Perfect →
“I have worked hard,” he said. |
Past Perfect
He said (that) he had worked hard. |
Present Perfect Continuous →
“I have been working hard,” he said. |
Past Perfect Continuous
He said (that) he had been working hard. |
Past Simple →
“I worked hard,” he said. |
Past Perfect
He said (that) he had worked hard. |
Future →
“I will work hard,” he said. |
Would
He said (that) he would work hard. |
The Past Perfect, the Past Continuous and the Past Perfect Continuous remain the same:
e.g. “I was watching TV at six p.m. yesterday, ” he said. → He said (that) he was watching TV at six p.m. the day before.
If the speaker expresses something true, the tenses do not change, but if the information is false, they should be changed:
e.g. “Water boils at 100°C,” she said. (true) → She said (that) water boils at 100°C.
e.g. “Canada is a poor country,” he said. (false) → He said (that) Canada was a poor country.
2.3 Complete the reported sentences with the correct tenses:
1. 'I'm tired.' She said she ____ tired.

8. 'The Sahara desert is the largest desert in the world," he said.
9. "British weather is always wonderful," she said.
10. "The Mediterranean is the deepest sea," he said.
Note: past tenses are changed to past perfect only if this is necessary in order to make the time relations clear. Compare:
