直接引语和间接引语什么意思??

如题所述

直接引语是直接引述别人的原话,原话用有引号,而间接引语是引述别人的话,不用引号。间接引语在多数情况下构成宾语从句。直接引语改为间接引语时,引述动词是现在时,则间接引语中的动词、时间、时态的形式不变。

关键要掌握下列“三要素”。
要素一:陈述句的间接引语——连接词用that,在口语中可省略。引述动词用said, told, ,等。例如:

1) He said: “I’ve left my book in my room.”→

He told me that he had left his book in his room.

2) She said: “He will be busy.”→

She said that he would be busy.

要素二: 疑问句的间接引语。一般疑问句后连接词用if或whether,而引述选择疑问句时只能用whether,引述动词用asked,没有间接引语的可以加一个间接宾语me, him等,例如:

She said to Tom, “Can you help me?”→

She asked Tom if /whether he could help her.

1) She asked, “Is this book yours or his?”→

She asked me whether that book was mine or his.

2) 特殊疑问句用原句中的疑问词作连接词,改为陈述语序。例如:

The teacher asked, “how did you repair it?” →

The teacher asked me how I had repaired it.

要素三:祈使句的间接引语——采用“动词+宾语+不定式”结构。

told

即 asked sb. (not) to do sth.

ordered

warned

注意:引语中的呼语可改成宾语。引语中的please 去掉,动词改为 ask

1) The teacher said to the students, “Don’t waste your time.” →

The teacher told the students not to waste their time.

2) The mother said, “Tom, get up early, please.”→

The mother asked Tom to get up early.

“五不变”

在直接引语变间接引语时,还要注意以下五种不变的特殊情况。

1. 直接引语如果是客观真理,谚(习)语,变间接引语时时态不变。例如:

The teacher said, “The earth goes round the sun.”→

The teacher said that the earth goes round the sun.

My father said, “Practice makes perfect.”→

My father said practice makes perfect.

2. 直接引语中被引述的部分是反复出现的,习惯性的动作或说话时情况仍然存在的,变间接引语时,时态保持不变,例如:

The boy said to us, “ I usually get up at six every day.”→

The boy told us he usually gets up at six every day.

He said, “We are still students.’→

He said they are still students.

3. 直接引语如果有明确的表示过去的时间状语,时态不变。例如:

He said to me, “I was born in 1978.”→

He told me that he was born in 1978.

The engineer said, “I was at college in 1967.”→

The engineer said he was at college in 1967.

4.直接引语中凡有When, since,while 引导的从句,在变为间接引语时,只改变主句时态,从句的时态不变。例如:

He said, “I have studied English since I was a boy.” →

He said he had studied English since he was a boy.

She said, “I read the book while I was waiting for a bus.→

She said she had read the book while she was waiting for a bus.

Mr. Green said to them, “Joe told me all about his story when he asked for a job.”→

Mr. Green told them Joe had told him all about his story when he asked for a job.

5.如果直接引语中引述部分含有insist, suggest, demand等引导的虚拟宾语从句,变间接引语时,引语中的主从句时态都不变。例如:

He said, “We insisted that she start immediately.→

He said they (had) insisted that she start immediately.

She said, “He demanded that the girl leave at once.”→

She said he demanded that the girl leave at once.

另外,如果说话人转述自己的话,人称则可不变. 例如:

I said to him, “I have finished it.”→I told him I had finished it.

如果就在当地转述, here不必变为there,come不必改为go,如果就在当天转述,则today, yesterday, tomorrow等状语也不必变化。例如:

She said to us, I’ll come here tomorrow.”→

She told us she would come here tomorrow.
