Frases - El estilo indirecto I (cambios mas usuales)

El estilo indirecto en inglés (reported speech) expresa algo dicho anteriormente por alguien, es decir, cuenta lo que dijo alguien acerca de algo a diferencia del estilo directo (direct speech) que expresa exactamente lo que la otra persona dijo (lo que dijo la otra persona iría entre comillas "...").
                                                        
Estilo directo (direct speech)

 "I am going to London next week", she said = "Voy a Londres la semana que viene," ella dijo

Etilo indirecto (reported speech)

 She said that she was going to London the following week = Ella dijo que iba a ir a Londres la
                                                                                                   siguiente semana

Toda frase en estilo indirecto debe contener un verbo introductorio, una partícula de enlace y la frase que se cita.

      He said (=verbo introductorio)  (that) (=partícula de enlace) he walked a lot (=oración indirecta)
                                                                                     
Como se puede observar hay cambios en la oración por lo que podemos clasificar el estilo indirecto en los cambios que se producen y según el tipo de enunciado que sea.

    Pronombres

               Los pronombres cambian normalmente a 3ª persona del singular o plural, salvo si el
               hablante se refiere a sus propias palabras (hay que tener en cuenta quién es el emisor y a
               quién se refieren esos pronombres; personales o posesivos)
