Penjelasan:

Reported Speech, dalam bahasa Indonesia artinya adalah kalimat tidak langsung. Perubahan kalimat dari Direct Speech menjadi Reported Speech memiliki beberapa aturan.  Di bawah ini adalah beberapa contoh:

1) imperative speech

My mother said, "don't open that door!"

my mother said not to open that door.

Imperative: “Come here.” Reported Speech: She told me to come here. So, we use “ask/tell + to + verb” to report a command or imperative.

2) present tense

She said, "She is a dancer."

She said (that) She was a dancer.

Jika kalimat ini berbentuk kebenaran umum, maka akan lebih sesuai  

She said (that) She is a dancer.

3) past tense

my mother said, "You brother did his homework last night."

my mother said (that) my brother had done his homework previous night.

4) Present Perfect Tense

He asked me,"have you been to spain?"

He asked me if I had been to spain.

5) Modals

You asked me, "Can you come?"

You asked me if / whether I could come.
