1. Quoted speech shows a person’s exact words. Quotation marks (“. . .”) are a

sign that the words are the same words that a person used. For example:

Maria: Where are you going?

John: I’m going home.

 Quotedspeech:

Maria asked, “Where are you going?”

John replied, “I am going home.”

2. Reported speech puts the speaker’s words or ideas into a sentence without

quotation marks. Noun clauses are usually used. For example:

Maria: Where are you going?

John: I’m going home.

Reported speech:

Maria asked John where he was going.

John said that he was going home.
