REPORTED SPEECH
When do we use reported speech? Sometimes someone says a sentence, for example "I'm
going to the cinema tonight". Later, maybe we want to tell someone else what the first person
said. Let's see the video to clarify this better:
So, this is how it works:
We use a 'reporting verb' like 'say' or 'tell'. If this verb is in the present tense, it's easy. We just
put 'she says' and then the sentence:
We don't need to change the tense, though probably we do need to change the 'person' from 'I'
to 'she', for example. We also may need to change words like 'my' and 'your'.
(As I'm sure you know, often, we can choose if we want to use 'that' or not in English. I've put it
in brackets () to show that it's optional. It's exactly the same if you use 'that' or if you don't use
'that'.)
But, if the reporting verb is in the past tense, then usually we change the tenses in the reported
speech:
Here is a chart that might help you to understand the changes that must be done in order to
create sentences using the reported speech. Remember you can use either "say" or "tell" to
form the reported speech:

TAG QUESTIONS
Tag questions are similar to negative questions, since they are used when someone thinks
she / he knows the answer and wants confirmation. The form of tag questions is quite different
from the form of negative questions, however.
There are two main types of tag questions--one for affirmative statements and one for negative
statements. Both consist of the statement (affirmative or negative), plus a short ending (the
"tag") and a question mark.
Let's see the following video:
