Discours direct et indirect

DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH

Sarah

-Hello! Sarah speaking.
-Hello Sarah! It's me, Bob.
I'm going to see my mother tomorrow.

What did he say?

Discours direct

Bob said, 'I'm going to see my mother tomorrow.'

( Bob a dit : 'J'irai voir ma mère demain')

Discours indirect

Bob said (that) he was going to see his mother the next day.

(Bob a dit qu'il irait voir sa mère le lendemain)

On utilise le style indirect pour rapporter les paroles de quelqu'un sans faire de citation.
Les guillemets disparaissent.
En français, la subordonnée est introduite par "que" (obligatoire). En anglais, elle est introduite par "that" (facultatif).

Pour rapporter les paroles de quelqu'un, on peut utiliser d'autres verbes que 'say'.

Bob announced that... Bob declared that... Bob added that... Bob told me that...

Remarque : Bob said that... Bob said to me that...(moins commun) Bob told me that...
