Когда преобразуете прямую речь в косвенную, важно учитывать изменения во времени (согласование времен), местоимениях и обстоятельствах времени и места. Для обстоятельств времени и места следует использовать эквиваленты, чтобы сохранить смысл. Вот преобразованный текст:


  1. “I posted your letter yesterday,” said Pearl to her.
    Pearl told her that she had posted her letter the day before.

  2. “I'll have another talk with him tomorrow,” said Agnes.
    Agnes said that she would have another talk with him the next day.

  3. “You have a beautiful place here,” said Pete.
    Pete said that she had a beautiful place there.

  4. “Jessica arrived last night and she wanted to see you,” said Arny.
    Arny said that Jessica had arrived the previous night and that she had wanted to see her.

  5. “You'll never guess whom I met today. It was Flora!” said Nick.
    Nick said that she would never guess whom he had met that day and that it had been Flora.

  6. “I have not seen him this morning,” said Luke.
    Luke said that he had not seen him that morning.

  7. “He'll meet Betsie here today,” she said.
    She said that he would meet Betsie there that day.

  8. “I saw Jack at the University today,” she said.
    She said that she had seen Jack at the University that day.

  9. “Tonight I shall stay at home and read what the editor has given to me,” said Nelly.
    Nelly said that that night she would stay at home and read what the editor had given to her.

  10. “The McMillans moved to Glasgow two months ago and I have lived in their house since then,” said Stella Gibson.
    Stella Gibson said that the McMillans had moved to Glasgow two months before and that she had lived in their house since then.

  11. “Tomorrow I shall do it myself,” said mother.
    Mother said that she would do it herself the next day.

  12. “Now everything has changed here, you won't recognize a thing in this company,” said the chief executive.
    The chief executive said that at that time everything had changed there and that she would not recognize a thing in that company.

  13. “I heard Meg say she would come on Thursday next week,” said Barb.
    Barb said that she had heard Meg say she would come on Thursday the following week.

  14. “We have lived here a long time,” said Monica. “When he came I was on the terrace watering my begonias,” said George.
    Monica said that they had lived there for a long time. George added that when he had come, he had been on the terrace watering his begonias.


Примечания:

  1. Обстоятельства времени (например, "yesterday", "tomorrow", "tonight") изменяются на их эквиваленты в косвенной речи ("the day before", "the next day", "that night").
  2. Обстоятельства места (например, "here", "there") также изменяются, если контекст требует этого.
  3. Времена в косвенной речи обычно "сдвигаются назад" (например, Present Simple → Past Simple, Past Simple → Past Perfect).

Этот принцип делает вашу косвенную речь грамматически правильной и логичной.

Конвертация прямой речи в косвенную требует особого внимания к изменению временных и пространственных указателей. Вот как это будет выглядеть:

  1. Pearl told her that she had posted her letter the day before.
  2. Agnes said that she would have another talk with him the following day.
  3. Pete remarked that she had a beautiful place there.
  4. Arny mentioned that Jessica had arrived the previous night and had wanted to see her.
  5. Nick exclaimed that she would never guess whom he had met that day and that it was Flora.
  6. Luke stated that he had not seen him that morning.
  7. She said that he would meet Betsie there that day.
  8. She said that she had seen Jack at the University that day.
  9. Nelly said that she would stay at home that night and read what the editor had given to her.
  10. Stella Gibson said that the McMillans had moved to Glasgow two months before and that she had lived in their house since then.
  11. Mother said that she would do it herself the next day.
  12. The chief executive said that everything had changed there, and that they would not recognize anything in that company.
  13. Barb heard Meg say that she would come the following Thursday.
  14. Monica said that they had lived there for a long time. George added that when he came, he had been on the terrace watering his begonias.

В этом процессе важно обращать внимание на изменение временных указателей (например, "yesterday" → "the day before", "tomorrow" → "the following day") и пространственных указателей (например, "here" → "there").
