Indirect speech, also known as reported speech, is a way of conveying what someone has said without quoting their exact words. Instead of using quotation marks, the speaker paraphrases or summarizes the original statement. For example, in the sentence, Sarah said that she would go to the store, the exact words are not repeated, and the statement is rephrased. Indirect speech often involves changes in pronouns, verb tense, and other grammatical adjustments to fit the context of the reporting sentence. This method is useful for relaying information while maintaining a smooth narrative flow, allowing the speaker to focus on the content rather than the specific wording.
