Reported Speech
GRAMMAR
When do we use reported speech? Sometimes someone says a sentence, for example "I'm going to the cinema tonight". Later, maybe we want to tell someone else what the first person said.
Direct speech: I like ice cream.
Reported speech: She says (that) she likes ice cream.
But, if the reporting verb is in the past tense, then usually we change the tenses in the reported speech:
Direct speech: I like ice cream.
Reported speech: She said (that) she liked ice cream.
