    1. Introduction

    In this unit we are going to learn about…


    - Reported speech with imperatives
    - Reported speech with statements
    - The use of gerunds and in nitives

    2. Reported Speech imperatives

    Whenever we want to use reported or indirect speech, that is, whenever we want to
    restate what someone else said in the past, we must take into account what the
    speaker used the imperative for, since depending on his/her intention or the nature of
    his/her words, we should use a reporting verb or another. Have a look at the following
    chart to learn some of the most common reporting verbs to report imperatives.

    Have a look at these examples to learn how to use reported speech with imperatives:

    Nota importante: además de TELL o SAY usamos otros verbos para introducir una
    oración en Reported Speech. Estos verbos se conocen como “reporting verbs”. Aquí
    tienes algunos ejemplos:

    4. The use of gerunds and in nitives

    What is an in nitive and what is a gerund?


    • The in nitive is the base form of the verb + to (example: to play), which does not
    refer to any number, person or case.
    • The gerund is a verbal noun ending in -ing (example: playing).
    These forms do not express temporal or personal relations on their own. The choice or
    either form often causes some problems, but don't worry, you are going to learn it little by
    little and you will nd it easy!
