Learn English Grammar: INDIRECT SPEECH (REPORTED SPEECH)

Learn how to use reported speech with me and my sister Audra. “Reported speech” is when we say what someone else said. This is also called “indirect speech”. For example, Audra says, “I am Emma’s sister.” When I tell other people what Audra said, I would say the following: “Audra said she was my sister.” We use reported speech with verbs like “said”, “told”, and “ask”. We use reported speech frequently in conversation. Watch this class to learn about reported speech and see many examples. Test yourself with the quiz at www.engvid.com/learn-english-...

[@tabletposte9164]

good morning from Italy, happy new year and thanks for the video. as other listeners said I've found this rule a little strange. I understood the rule but I miss the logic. if Audra told me just a second ago that she is (was) fine and I immediately report it to my friend who i'm talking (by phone) i would say "audra told me (that) she is fine" because only three seconds have passed, so she is still fine. so my question is : in the everyday life do you use this rule ? or is it quite formal and actually you say to your friend "Audra ( has just) told me she IS fine". thank you for your work !!
