Глава 35. Reported Speech. Косвенная речь
Если вам нужно передать чьи-то слова по-английски, необходимо помнить, что при этом исходная фраза должна звучать так, как если бы мы произносили ее в прошлом. Например, I am very busy now, а в косвенной речи вы будете передавать эти слова через Past Simple: He said he was very busy.
