  1. To report commands or instructions in Reported Speech, the following pattern is used:

introductory verb + smb + (not) to-infinitive

e.g. “Put the gun down!” the policeman said to the criminal. – The policeman ordered the criminalto put the gun down.

“Don't look down!' the instructor said to us. - The instructor told us not to look down.

“Put the shopping in the kitchen,” the mother said to her daughter. - The mother told her daughterto put the shopping in the kitchen.

‘Find our skates in the pantry.’ Kate asked Paul. – Kate told Paul to find their skates in the pantry.

‘Put on warm clothes,’ Kate told Paul. - Kate asked Paul to put on warm clothes.

She also told him, ‘Don’t eat much before skating.’ - She also warned him not to eat too much before skating.

  1. To report requests in Reported Speech, the following pattern is used:

introductory verbs + smb + (not) to-infinitive

e.g. “Help me, please,' Jean said to Tom. -Jean asked Tom to help her.

“Please, please don't call the police.' the burglar said to Colin. –

The burglar begged Collin not to call the police.

  1. To report suggestions in Reported Speech, the following patterns are used,

· introductory verb + gerund

e.g. I suggest swimming after breakfast.

· introductory verb + that + smb + should + bare infinitive

e.g. I suggest that we should swim after breakfast.

· introductory verb + that + smb + bare infinitive

e.g. I suggest that we swim after breakfast.

Here is another example: Sentences a-d below mean the same,

a) “Let's go outside,” I said to them.

b) “We can/could go outside,” I said to them.

c) “Shall we go outside?” I said to them.

d) “ How about going outside?” I said to them.

The Reported Speech equivalents to these three sentences will be:

NOTES:

· The verb ‘to suggest’ is more formal than the verb ‘to offer’,

e.g. Len offered Joanne to go to the pictures.

The teacher suggested going to the museum after classes.

· The verb ‘to propose’ is more formal than the verb ‘to suggest’. Both verbs are followed by a gerund

e.g. The chairman proposed closing the debates.

Kate suggestedgoing to the skating rink in the afternoon.

Remember!!! The verbs ‘to suggest’ and ‘to propose’ are followed by gerund, not by infinitive!

e.g. Paul suggested putting the meeting off till Monday. RIGHT

Paul suggested to put the meeting off till Monday. WRONG!!!

· The verb ‘to request’ is a formal verb and is followed by an infinitive

e.g. The patrons are requested not to smoke in the restaurant.

He requested the delegates of the conference to assemble in the lobby.

· The verb ‘to demand’ can be followed either by an infinitive or by a ‘that clause’,

e.g. ‘I want to see the manager,’ he demanded. – He demanded to see the manager. = He demanded that he should see the manager.

Mind the changes that happen to adverbial modifiers of time and place when the direct speech is turned into indirect.

"Don't mention my name, darling, but I can tell you why June Wonda has stopped making her new film.

Let's sleep on the problem before we decide anything.” But next morning Sam Hill hadn't changed his mine one bit. “Take your holiday', he demanded. “And my advice is, go as far away from me as you can get. Take Willy with you, and don't come back!' End of story, Jenny. Off they went'"
