Direct dan Indirect Speech
Direct
dan indirect speech bisa diartikan sebagai kalimat langsung dan tidak
langsung. Pembahasaan kalimat langsung dan tidak langsung tentunya sudah
akrab di telinga teman-teman sekalian, karena pembahasan tersebut sudah
diajarkan di pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia. Pembahasan kalimat langsung
dan tidak langsung dalam Bahasa Indonesia dan direct and indirect speech
dalaam Bahasa Inggris sebenarnya tidak jauh berbeda. Namun, ketika kita
merubah kalimat langsung menjadi kalimat tidak langsung dalam bahasa
Inggris, ada beberapa hal yang mengalami perubahan diantaranya perubahan
struktur kalimat, tensis, pronoun (kata ganti orang), keterangan waktu
dan tempat (Adverbs of time and place). Sebelum melangkah jauh ke sub-pembahasan tersebut di atas, alangkah baiknya ada juga mengerti tentang apa yang dimaksud Reporting Speech dan Reported Speech.
Reporting Speech adalah bagian dalam kalimat direct speech yang di tandai oleh tanda petik (") dan di akhiri oleh tanda petik (").
- He said, "I have a present for you in my bag."
- He asked me, "why do you come late."
Sedangkan Reported Speech adalah baigan awal dari kalimat direct speech.
- He said, "I have a present for you in my bag."
- He asked me, "why do you come late."
Untuk itu, pada
artikel ini penulis sengaja membagi beberpa sub-penjelasan mengenai
direct dan indirect speech berdasakan perubahan-perbuahan di atas.
1. Perubahan Stuktur kalimat
Jika kita lihat
pada kalimat direct speech, terdapat ciri-ciri yang identik yaitu
terdapat tanda petik ("). Tada petik tersebut merupakan cara yang sering
digunakan untuk membedakan mana yang direct atau yang indirect.
Ketika klimat
direct speech tersebut dirubah menjadi kalimat indirect speech, tanda
petik tersebut pun dihilangkan atau digantikan dengan kata "that" atau
"to" (untuk kalimat perintah). Misalnya:
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | He said, "I have a present for you in my bag." | He said that he had a present for me in his bag. |
| 02 | He asked me, "why do you come late." | He asked me why I came late. |
| 03 | He orderd me, "don't bring a bag." | He ordered me to didn't bring a bag. |
Perubahan struktur
kalimat juga terjadi jika pada direct speech menggunakan kalimat tanya,
maka akan dirubah menjadi kalimat afirmatif (berita).
Untuk kalimat direct speech yang menggunakan kalimat tanya "yes-no question" maka akan dirubah menjadi if/whether. Contohnya:
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | They asked me, "Do you want to join us to play football?" | They asked me if/whether I want to join them to play football. |
| 02 | He asked me, "Does she want to mary me?" | He asked me if/whether she wants to mary her. |
Untuk kalimat
direct speech yang menggunakan 5W1H question (Why, Who, What, When,
WHere, How), maka akan dirubah menjadi kalimat afirmatif dengan cara
sebagai berikut:
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | He asked me, "why do you come late?" | He asked me why you came late. |
| 02 | He asked me, "what does she eat?" | He asked me what she ate. |
| 03 | He asked me, "when did you come?" | He asked me when I came. |
| 04 | He asked me, "who are you?" | He asked me who I was. |
| 05 | He asked me, "who is she?" | He asked me who she was. |
2. Perubahan Tensis (Tenses)
Seperti yang
dijelaskan dimuka, perbuahan dari direct ke indirect juga mempengaruhi
tensis yang digunakan. Kebanyakan siswa sulit memahami perubahan yang
satu ini. Untuk itu, penulis sengaja membuatkan tabel perubahan tensis
agar mudah dimengerti.
Di bawah ini adalah tabel Perubahan Tenses dari direct speech ke indirect speech.
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | Simple Present | Simple Past |
| 02 | Present Continuous | Past Continuous |
| 03 | Present Future | Past Future |
| 04 | Present Perfect | Past Perfect |
| 05 | Present Perfect Continuous | Past Perfect Continuous |
| 06 | Simple Past | Past Perfect |
| 07 | Past Continuous | Past Perfect Continuous |
Atau bisa lebih dipermudah dengan tabel berikut di bawah ini, yaitu:
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | V1 (eat) | V2 (ate) |
| 02 | V2 (ate) | Had + V3 (had eaten) |
| 03 | Am/is/are | Was/were |
| 04 | Do/does | Did |
| 05 | Do/does not | Did not |
| 06 | Did not | Had not + V3 |
| 07 | Was/were | Had been |
| 08 | Am/is/are + V-ing | Was/were + V-ing |
| 09 | Was/were +V-ing | Had been + V-ing |
| 10 | Has/have + V3 | Had + V3 |
| 11 | Will/shall/can/may/must | Would/should/could/might/had to |
| 12 | Could/might/should/would + V1/be | Could/might/should/would + have+ V3/been |
3. Perubahan Pronoun
Perubahan pronoun
dan possessive tergantung kepada sabjek dan objek yang dipakai di direct
speech (kalimat langsung) yang tentunya mempengaruhi perubahan pronoun
pada indirect speech (kalimat tidak langsung).
- Kata ganti orang pertama (I dan We) pada reporting speech (lihat penjelasan di awal) berubah sesuai subjek yang ada di reproted speech.
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | He said, ‘I am busy.’ | He said that he was busy. |
| 02 | She said, ‘I am unwell.’ | She said that she was unwell. |
| 03 | I said, ‘I will be late.’ | I said that I would be late. |
| 04 | They said, ‘We will not permit this.’ | They said that they would not permit that. |
| 05 | We said, ‘We need to buy some clothes.’ | We said that we needed to buy some clothes. |
- Kata ganti orang kedua (You) di reporting speech pada direct speech berubah sesuai objek pada reported speech.
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | He said to me, ‘You have to come with me.’ | He told me that I had to go with him. |
| 02 | She said to me, ‘You can go.’ | She told me that I could go. |
| 03 | She said to him, ‘You can go.’ | She told him that he could go. |
- Kata ganti orang ketiga (He, she, it dan they) pada direct speech tidak mengalami perubahan ketika dirubah ke indirect speech.
| No | Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
| 01 | He said, ‘She is a good girl.’ | He said that she was a good girl. |
| 02 | She said, ‘They have invited us.’ | She said that they had invited them. |
| 03 | They said, ‘He does not have the necessary qualifications.’ | They said that he did not have the necessary qualifications. |
4. Perubahan Keterangan waktu dan tempat (Adverbs of time and place)
Tidak cuma itu, dalam perubahan dari direct speech ke indirect speech juga mempengaruhi adverbs khusunya adverb of time (keterangan waktu) dan adverb of place (keterangan tempat). Untuk itu anda wajib memahami tabel di bawah ini.
