EXPLANATION
Indirect speech merupakan pelaporan ulang ulasan yang disampaikan oleh narasumber, tanpa mengubah makna tersirat dalam pemberitaan pada jeda waktu yang berbeda.
Perubahan tenses pada noun clause verb-nya bergantung pada bentuk reporting verb-nya dan jenis informasi yg disampaikan, apakah berupa informasi faktual, imperative, interrogative dan prohibition.
Jika reporting verb-nya berbentuk lampau { said, told, asked }, noun clause verb mengalami backshift :
▶Simple present=>Simple past
▶Simple past=>Past perfect
▶Present perfect=>Past perfect
▶Simple future =>Present conditional
▶Present continuous=>Past continuous
▶Past continuous=>Past perfect continuous
Ini dikecualikan jika pernyataan yang disampaikan merupakan informasi faktual, tidak mengalami backshift [noun clause verb tetap sama ] meskipun reporting verb-nya bentuk lampau.
