Bobo.id - Dalam mempelajari bahasa Inggris, tentunya kita juga belajar menulis kalimat kutipan langsung (direct speech) dan kutipan tidak langsung (indirect speech).
Menurut Grammarly.com, direct speech berisi kutipan langsung pembicara dengan ciri-ciri berupa tanda petik ("...") dan tanpa perubahan tenses.
Sedangkan indirect speech berisi kutipan tidak langsung, tanpa adanya tanda petik, dan mengalami perubahan tenses serta perubahan kata ganti (pronouns).
Aturan direct speech dan indirect speech juga mengikuti aturan tenses yang digunakan.
Yuk, kita mulai belajar menulis direct speech dari simple present tense berikut ini.
Rumus direct speech dalam simple present tense adalah: Subjek + expressing verbs + "simple present tense activity."
