Soal dan Pembahasan Direct and Indirect Speech Dalam Bahasa Inggris

Kalimat langsung adalah kata- kata (kalimat ) yang diucapkan langsung oleh pembicara. Kalimat langsung diceritakan kembali dengan cara yang lain tanpa merubah arti dan tidak mengulangi lagi apa yang pembicara katakan tetapi menceritakan kembali apa yang dikatakan oleh pembicara.

Ada beberapa perubahan yang terjadi apabila kita ingin mengubah kalimat langsung menjadi kalimat tak langsung. Perubahan tersebut meliputi perubahan pronoun, tense, adverb dan susunan kalimat. Perubahan lainnya adalah mengenai perubahan tanda baca. Berikut ini adalah beberapa perubahan yang terjadi pada perubahan kalimat langsung menjadi tidak langsung.

Perubahan Pronoun
 
Contoh
(DS) Hendra said, “I am ill.”
(RS) Hendra said that he was ill.

(DS) Ana says,” I am a student.”
(RS) Ana says that she is a student

(DS) The students say,” we are waiting for their teacher.”
(RS) The students say that they are waiting for their teacher.

Perubahan Tenses

Contoh:
(DS) He said, “ I am very sad.”
(RS) He said that he was very sad.

(DS) He explained,” I repair the motorcycle in the garage.”
(RS) He explained that he repaired the motorcycle in the garage.

Perubahan tenses tersebut disebabkan bentuk kata kerja yang digunakan untuk menuturkan ucapan  atau kalimat langsung menjadi ucapan atau kalimat tidak langsung. Kata kerja ini disebut introductory verb. Pada contoh diatas yang termasuk introductory verb adalah kata : say, says, explained.
Apabila introductory verb digunakan pada kalimat langsung  dalam bentuk present maka perubahan kalimat langsung menjadi kalimat tidak langsung akan mengalami perubahan tenses. Namun bila introductory verb yang digunakan pada kalimat langsung adalah past, maka akan berubah menjadi past perfect tense.

Berikut ini contoh dari perubahan tersebut.

Contoh 1.
"She is very busy at home.”
He says (that) she is very busy at home.
He will say  (that) she is very busy at home.
He has just say (that) she is very busy at home.
He had just said( that) she was very busy at home.
He said ( that) she was very busy at home.

Contoh 2.
 “They are studying in the class.”
He tells me that they are studying in the class.
He told me that they were studying in the class.

Contoh 3.
“ The family will go to Bali.”
She explains that the family will go to Bali.
She explained that the family would go to Bali.

Pada umumnya Introductory verb bentuk tenses bentuk Past Tense akan mengubah tenses kalimat langsung ketika diubah menjadi kalimat tidak langsung.
