    1) Reported speech, also known as indirect speech, is used to report what someone has said without quoting them directly. 2) When changing a statement from direct to reported speech, the verb tense is typically changed to the past tense, pronouns and other references are changed to reflect the new context, and time/place adverbs are adjusted. 3) Common reporting verbs like "say" and "tell" are used to introduce reported speech, sometimes followed by the conjunction "that" and sometimes not depending on the specific verb used.
