نقل شدہ کلام (Reported Speech)

نقل شدہ کلام (reported speech) کسی کے کہے گئے الفاظ کو براہ راست حوالہ دیے بغیر بیان کرتی ہے۔ فعل کا زمانہ عام طور پر ایک قدم پیچھے چلا جاتا ہے (حال → ماضی)، اور ضمائر/وقت کے الفاظ نئے بولنے والے اور وقت کے مطابق بدل جاتے ہیں۔

Examples

• "I will call you," he said. → He said he would call me.
