Explications :
Pour passer du discours direct au discours indirect : ( rappels )
- Utiliser un verbe pour introduire le discours indirect ( ask; say; tell ..)
==> Ici, on rapporte des parloles passées, le verbe introducteur sera donc au
prétérit ( asked; said ...) = a dit, a demandé ..
- Ne pas oublier de changer certains pronoms
- yesterday devient the day before/ the previous day
- tomorrow devient the next day / the following day
- here devient there
- Ne pas oublier la concordance des temps
Le présent simple du Discours Direct devient Prétérit simple au Discours
Indirect
Le présent « be » + V-ing du Discours Direct devient prétérit « be » + V-ing
au Discours Indirect
Le prétérit du Discours Direct devient past perfect au Discours Indirect
le présent perfect du Discours Direct devient past perfect au Discours
Indirect
