REPORTED SPEECH
El estilo indirecto se utiliza para expresar lo que alguien dijo literalmente de una
forma distinta, con nuestras propias palabras. Es muy utilizado en el lenguaje
coloquial.
En el estilo indirecto se producen una serie de transformaciones dentro de la
oración que pasaremos a detallar seguidamente:
1ª transformación: verbal
Los verbos del estilo directo (que suele ir entre comillas), cambian a un tiempo
“anterior” al transformar la frase:
Estilo Directo
Estilo Indirecto
Pr. Simple
Pas. Simple
Pr. Continuo
Pas. Continuo
Pr. Perfecto
Pas. Perfecto
Pas. Simple
Pas. Perfecto
Pas. Perfecto
Pas. Perfecto
Futuro simple
Condicional
Condicional
Condicional perfecto
(would + infinitivo sin “to”)
(would have + participio)
2ª transformación: pronominal
Tanto los posesivos como los pronombres personales experimentan un cambio
en el estilo indirecto que está relacionado con la persona a la que se dirige la
oración; por tanto, la transformación va a depender del objeto o persona a
quien se dirija la oración.
3ª transformación: adverbial
Los adverbios de lugar y tiempo en el estilo indirecto cambian del siguiente
modo:
ESTILO DIRECTO
ESTILO INDIRECTO
Here
There
This
That
Now
Then
Today
That day
Tomorrow
The following day
Yesterday
The previous day
Next day
The following day
Last day
The previous day
4
Statements (Oraciones Enunciativas)
Sujeto + said / told + that + oración en est. indirecto
Ejemplo:
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
“I am going home”
She said that she was going home
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
My brother said “I will see you tomorrow”
My brother said that he would see me the following day.
Questions (oraciones interrogativas)
Sujeto + asked / wondered + if / wh- question + oración en est. indirecto
En estas oraciones hay que distinguir entre las que llamamos “interrogativas
polares” (“yes/no questions”, aquellas en las que la respuesta es sí o no) e
“interrogativas informativas” (“wh- questions”, las que el que pregunta solicita
información concreta. Éstas van introducidas por un pronombre o determinante
interrogativo, “wh” word).
En las “polares”, el verbo que introduce la oración de estilo indirecto será ask,
wonder, principalmente; tras el verbo introductorio, colocamos un if para
presentar la oración indirecta. En las “informativas”, no se pone if sino que
introduce la frase el mismo pronombre interrogativo (wh- element) del estilo
directo.
Además de los cambios que ya hemos visto (pronominal, verbal, adverbial…),
en las questions se produce un cambio de orden en la frase: del orden
interrogativo de la oración de estilo directo pasamos a un orden enunciativo en
el estilo indirecto.
Ejemplos:
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
John said “do you want a drink?”
John asked if I wanted a drink.
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
The policeman said “what are you doing?”
The policeman asked what they were doing.
Command & Request (oraciones imperativas)
Sujeto + verbo de orden y petición + objeto indirecto + infinitivo + compl.
Pasamos en el estilo directo de una oración imperativa a una construcción de
infinitivo en el estilo indirecto; si la D.S. fuera negativa (don’t + base form),
negaremos la construcción de infinitivo con not.
Utilizamos como verbos de orden y petición para introducir la RS los siguientes:
Ordered, commanded, asked, invited, warned, advised, begged, suggested, recommended
(ordenar)
(mandar)
(pedir) (invitar)
(advertir) (avisar)
5
(suplicar) (sugerir)
(recomendar)
Ejemplos:
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
Est. Directo:
Est. Indirecto:
“Would you like to drink a coke, Peter?”
John invited Peter to drink a coke.
The policeman said, “Get out of the car!”
The policeman ordered me to get out of the car.
