语法 Grammar in use 

直接引语和间接引语

直接引语就是直接引用说话人原来所说的话;间接引语就是原话的转述。直接引语放在引号里,间接引语是把说话人的原话变成宾语从句。

间接引语中,宾语从句中的动词与主句中的主要动词在时态上必须保持一致。一般来说,主要动词用现在时,间接引语中可用现在时(包括一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时)和将来时。如:

She says she's got a headache. 她说她头痛。

He says he's staying at a Youth Hostel. 你说他正住在一家青年招待所。

He says he has sold his house. 他说他已卖掉了房子。

把直接陈述改为间接引语时,谓语动词形式的变化体现在人称上。如:

He says: ‘I hope you are all well. ’

他说:"我希望你们都身体健康。"

He says he hopes we/they are all well. 

他说他希望我们/他们都身体健康。

The girl says: ‘I have finished my homework.’

那个姑娘说:"她已完成了家庭作业。" 

The girl says that she has finished her homework.

那个姑娘说她已完成了家庭作业。

直接引语和间接引语是英语语法中两种重要的引述方式,它们在表达方式和语法结构上有所不同。下面我将详细解释这两种引语的特点和转换方法。

直接引语

直接引语是直接引用某人的原话,通常放在引号内。它保留了说话人的原始表达方式,包括人称、时态和语气等。直接引语常用于对话或引述具体的话语。

例如:

间接引语

间接引语则是对某人所说的话进行转述,不再使用引号。在间接引语中,通常需要对直接引语的时态、人称等进行相应的变化,以适应新的上下文。这种变化遵循一定的规则。

  1. 时态变化:当主句的谓语动词是现在时态时,从句的谓语动词可以保持原时态,也可以根据具体情况使用相应的过去时态。如果主句的谓语动词是过去时态,从句的谓语动词则通常要向过去时态推移。
  2. 人称变化:直接引语中的人称代词通常需要根据上下文进行相应的变化。
  3. 指示代词和时间状语的变化:直接引语中的指示代词和时间状语也需要根据上下文进行调整。

转换示例

以下是一些直接引语和间接引语的转换示例:

  1. 直接引语:He said, "I am very busy now."
    间接引语:He said (that) he was very busy then.
  2. 直接引语:She said, "I will go to the party with my friends."
    间接引语:She said (that) she would go to the party with her friends.
  3. 直接引语:They said, "We have finished our homework."
    间接引语:They said (that) they had finished their homework.

通过这些规则和示例,我们可以更好地理解和运用直接引语和间接引语,以适应不同的语境和表达需求。
