COMMAND ( Perintah )

Command di bagi dalam 2 bagian yaitu :

Positive Command

Dalam perintah positif kita tambahkan to di depan kalimat perintahnya, sebagai penghubung antara kalimat pengantar dan perintah yang di laporkan, kalimat- kalimat pengantar dalam jenis ini ialah :

Subject + asked/told + to + infinitive

( Syifa member tahu Syamil : “ Jangan tunggu saya “ )
– Syifa told Syamil not to wait for her. ( Indirect speech )

QUESTION ( Pertanyaan )

Bila kita bertanya langsung ( Direct question ) kita menggunakan kata-kata : where, when, why, what, who, how, dll. maka kata- kata tersebut di gunakan sebagai penghubung dalam reported speech, Pertanyaan yang di laporkan berubah menjadi bentuk ppositif. kalimat pengantarnya ialah :

Subject + where/when/etc + asked + Positive Form

e.g

( Seorang lelaki bertanya kepada saya : “dimana kamu tinggal ?“.)
– The man asked me where I live. ( Indirect speech )

( Mary bertanya pada John : “ mengapa kamu marah kepada ku ?? “)
– Mary asked John why he got angry with her . ( Indirect speech )
( Mary bertanya kepada John mengapa dia marah kepadanya )

Bila pertanyaan langsung tidak menggunakan kata-kata Tanya, dan hanya merupakan kata- kata Tanya dalam bentuk ” yes & No question “, maka kita menggunakan kata- k ata if, whether (= jika, apakah) sebagai penghubung antara kalimat pengantar dan pertanyaan yang di laporkan.

e.g

* The boy asked John : “ Does mary live near here ?” ( Direct speech )
( anak lelaki itu bertanya pada John : “ Apakah Mary tinggal dekat sini ? “ )
– The boy asked John if mary lived near there ?. ( Indirect speech )
( Anak lelaki itu bertanya pada John apakah Mary tinggal di dekat sana ?)

Note : Baik if maupun whether dapat di gunakan bergantian.

REPORTED SPEECH / MIXED TYPE ( Jenis Gabungan )

– Mary asked John what the matter was with him as he didn’t look well. ( Indirect speech )
( Mary bertanya kepada John ada apa dengan dia karena dia kelihatan tidak baik )

e.g

* She asked me : “ Will you go out with me? “ No, I won’t “. ( Direct speech )
