В этом видео мы рассматриваем то, как меняются времена английского глагола при переходе от прямой (direct speech) к косвенной (reported speech) речи.
| Прямая речь |
Косвенная речь |
Present simple
"I work for Google". |
Past simple
He said he worked for Google. |
Present continuous
"I am working on the project". |
Past continuous
He said he was working on the project. |
Past simple
"I finished the project". |
Past perfect
He said he had finished the project. |
Past continuous
"He wasn't telling the truth". |
Past perfect continuous

Present perfect simple
"I have finished the project". |
Past perfect simple

Present perfect continuous

Past perfect continuous

is/are/am going to
"I am going to stay". |
was/were going to

Most modal verbs (e.g. can, will, must, may)
"I can't think of anything more".
"I will come".
"I must stop". |
could, would, had to, might
He said he couldn't say anything more.
He said he would come.
He said he had to stop. |
Но нужно так же отметить, что не все формы глаголов меняются. К таковым относятся - прошедшее совершенное (Past perfect) и модальные глаголы - could, would, should, mustn't.
Обратите внимание на примеры:
"I had done the project before". - He said he had done the project before.
"We could also go". - They said they could also go.
"I should try better". - He said he should try better.
