REFUERZO GRADO 1101


Direct and Reported Speech (El estilo directo y indirecto)

Cuando queremos comunicar o informar de lo que otra persona ha dicho, hay dos maneras de hacerlo: utilizando el estilo directo o el estilo indirecto.

Direct Speech (El estilo directo)

Cuando queremos informar exactamente lo que otra persona ha dicho, utilizamos el estilo directo. Con este estilo lo que la persona ha dicho se coloca entre comillas ("...") y deberá ser palabra por palabra.
  • Ejemplos:
  •  "I am going to London next week," she said. ("Voy a Londres la semana que viene," ella dijo.)
  • "Do you have a pen I could borrow," he asked. ("Tienes un bolígrafo que puedas prestarme," él preguntó.)
  • Alice said, "I love to dance." (Alice dijo, "Me encanta bailar.")
  • Chris asked, "Would you like to have dinner with me tomorrow night?" (Chris preguntó, "Te gustaría cenar conmigo mañana por la noche?")

Reported Speech (El estilo indirecto)

El estilo indirecto, a diferencia del estilo directo, no utiliza las comillas y no necesita ser palabra por palabra. En general, cuando se usa el estilo indirecto, el tiempo verbal cambia. A continuación tienes un explicación de los cambios que sufren los tiempos verbales.
A veces se usa "that" en las frases afirmativas y negativas para introducir lo que ha dicho la otra persona. Por otro lado, en las frases interrogativas se puede usar "if" o "whether".

Como en español, la voz pasiva se forma con el verbo 'to be' (ser) y el participio pasado.

 El sujeto de un verbo en pasiva corresponde al objeto de un verbo en activa.

 En las formas del ‘future progressive’ (will be being + pp) y ‘perfect progressive’ (has been being + pp) no es muy común su uso.
 Para decir quién hacía la acción o qué la causaba, usa 'by'.

 La voz pasiva se suele utilizar cuando se desconoce o no interesa mencionar quién o qué hace la acción.

German is spoken here / Aquí se habla alemán

Los verbos modales (modal auxiliary verbs) son:
can, could
may, might
will, would
shall, should
must
ought to
 poder, saber
poder
querer
deber
deber
deber
 A veces, 'need' (tener que) y 'dare' (atreverse), también tienen las mismas características gramaticales de los verbos modales.

• No añaden la 's' en la tercera persona del singular del presente.

She must know his telephone number. – Ella debe saber su número de teléfono.
        X She musts know.... X

• Forman la interrogación, la negación, las respuestas cortas y las llamadas 'preguntas coletilla' (tag questions)sin utilizar el auxiliary 'do'.

Can you speak Spanish? - ¿Puedes hablar español?

        X Do you can….. X

• Forman la negación añadiendo not.

- I cannot go on Friday. – No puedo ir el viernes.

• Admiten contracciones.

     cannot = can’t
     could not = couldn’t
     might not = mightn’t
     will not = won’t
     would not = wouldn’t
     shall not = shan’t (inglés británico)
     should not = shouldn’t
     must not = mustn’t
     ought not to = oughtn’t to

• Los verbos modales no tienen el infinitivo, por lo que no pueden estar precedidos de ‘to’.

     X to can X      X to might X

• Van seguidos de infinitivo sin 'to', con exepción de 'ought'

- I must buy some milk – Debo comprar leche.

     X I must to buy…. X

- We can leave at seven. – Podemos marcharnos a las siete.

     X We can to leave…. X

• Los verbos modales no tienen el participio pasado ni el participio presente. Sólo tienen una o dos formas y carecen de la mayoría de los tiempos.

     X musting X      X musted X
