Telechargé par astrid.soetens
Direct speech / Indirect speech
Direct speech c’est le discours direct, quand on rapporte exactement les mots tels qu’ils ont été prononcés.
Reported speech c’est le discours indirect, on rapporte ce que les gens ont dit sans reprendre leur discours mot pour mot.
Lors du passage au discours indirect, on devra parfois changer:
Les pronoms (pronouns)
Les temps (tenses)
Les indicateurs de lieux et de temps (place and time expressions)
Si notre récit est au passé, on doit décaler le discours d’un cran vers le passé, en gardant l’aspect simple ou
progressif. Le pronom relatif “that” peut être omis.
Simple Present
He said,‘ I want to go.
Present Continuous
‘I’m having a nice time,’ he said.
Simple past
‘I killed the bear,’ he said.
Simple Past
He said that he wanted to go.
Past Continuous
He said (that) he was having a nice time.
Plu Perfect
He said he had killed a bear.
Tous les mots deictiques (qui n’ont de sens que selon la situation d’énonciation) doivent être modifiés:
•this/these
•here

She said to me, ‘Stand here and wait for me.’
•that/those/the
•there

•tonight
•now
•today
•yesterday
•tomorrow
•a week ago
•last year

•that day
•the previous day /the day before
•the next/ following day
•a week earlier/before
•the previous year/ the year before(that)

before.
Les 3 verbes les plus utilisés au discours indirects sont: say, tell et ask.

‘I don’t know what to do,’ he said. He said (that) he didn’t know what to do.
