Hi!! «Last year» doesn’t changе in reported speech?
@englishspeaking36011 ай бұрын
It depends. If you are reporting a statement in the same year, then "last year" is still valid. However, if you are reporting 5 years later, then "last year" becomes "the year before" or "the prevoius year". Does that make sense? I hope my explanation is clear enough.

How about; - Did you steal this car ?. # She asked me if I STOLE that car. - can I say it like that ?, Instead of; - She asked me if I had stolen that car.
@englishspeaking3606 ай бұрын
In reported speech, it's generally more accurate to backshift the tense to reflect the change from direct to indirect speech. Therefore, "He asked if I had stolen that car" is more commonly used. However, "He asked if I stole that car" can be acceptable in some contexts, especially if the stealing is still relevant or recent. The use of "had stolen" is typically preferred for clarity and to maintain consistency in tense backshifting.
@fredylopez24776 ай бұрын
Thanks for answering, I know the use of "had stolen" is preferred grammatically 'cause, like you texted "it keeps consistency in tense backshifting" or time sequence but in the USA they use both ways interchangeably or indistinctly. - If I had stolen the car. - If I stole the car. Because when you say: "She asked me if I stole the car". # Both actions happened in the past, I mean, started and ended in the past. But anyway I just wanted to know your point of view and I agree with you 'cause Grammar's very essential and relevant when learning a foreign language, that's the way I learned how to speak, understand, write and read English and living in the USA for almost 10 years helped a lot too. BUT I also agree with the other way 'cause they use it too and got used to using it, for the reason I explained above no matter if the action is still relevant or recent. Thanks for reading my comment profe and for ratifying. 👍.

I am confused on this one What do you do in free time He asked me what I did in my free time Can we say He asked me what I do in my free time coz they are not asking about one action and it’s more like a repeated action or habitual.
@englishspeaking36012 күн бұрын
In reported speech, the tense often shifts back, which is why "He asked me what I did in my free time" is the grammatically standard choice when reporting a question in the past. However, you can use "what I do in my free time" if you're emphasizing that the question referred to a habitual or general action that still applies in the present. Examples: 1. He asked me what I did in my free time. (The question was asked in the past, and you're reporting it in the past.) 2. He asked me what I do in my free time. (This can work if you're emphasizing that the activity is ongoing or habitual.) Both can be correct depending on the context and focus, but using the past tense ("did") is the default in reported speech.
