REPORTED SPEECH

(He said that ... / She told me that ...)
(Dedi ki ... / O bana dedi ki ...)


Birilerinin bize s�ylediklerini ba�kalar�na aktarman�n iki yolu var.

1. Direct Speech or Quoted Speech (Do�rudan aktarma): S�ylenileni oldu�u gibi, hi�bir de�i�iklik yapmadan aktar�yor ve c�mleyi t�rnak i�inde g�steriyoruz. 

Tom: I am helping my father today.
(Bug�n babama yard�m ediyorum.)
Tom said that �I am helping my father today.�
Tom �Bug�n babama yard�m ediyorum,� dedi. 

2. Indirect Speech or Reported Speech (Dolayl� aktarma): Bu t�r aktarmada ki�inin a�z�ndan ��kan baz� s�zc�klerde de�i�lik yapmam�z gerekiyor. Ki�inin s�yledi�i art�k ge�mi�te kald��� i�in c�mlede kullan�lan zaman�n bir derece past��n� al�yoruz. 

Tom: I am helping my father today.
Tom said that he was helping his father that day.
(Tom o g�n babas�na yard�m etmekte oldu�unu s�yledi.)

Tom�un a�z�ndan ��kan c�mlede neler de�i�ti?

Subject: I � he (Kim sorusuna cevap: O)
Tense: am helping � was helping (C�mlenin zaman� present continuous iken � past continuous oldu.)
Object: my father � his father (Kimin babas� sorusuna cevap: Onun babas�)
Adverb of time: today � that day (ne zaman sorusuna cevap: bug�n � o g�n)

SAY and TELL


S�ylemek, demek anlam�na gelirler.
Present, past ve past participle halleri ��yledir: say � said � said / tell � told � told

�Tell� fiilini kulland���m�z zaman c�mlenin kime s�ylendi�ini belirtmek zorunday�z.
Bu nedenle tell fiilinden sonra ya nesne durumunda bir zamir ya da bir isim bulunur.


She told me that she was fine. (Bana iyi oldu�unu s�yledi.)
She told Jane that she was fine. ( Jane�e iyi oldu�unu s�yledi.)

�Say� fiilini kulland���m�z zaman b�yle bir zorunluluk yoktur.

She said that she was fine.

Ama yine de kime s�ylendi�ini belirtmek istiyorsak, say�den sonra �to� edat�n� kullanmam�z gerekir.


She said to me that she was fine.
She said to Jane that she was fine. 

Tell fiili ayr�ca anlatmak, bahsetmek anlam�ndad�r.

He told us a story. (Bize bir hikaye anlatt�.)
He told us about his new job. (Bize yeni i�inden bahsetti.)

Say fiilini bu anlamda kullan�lmaz.
