• Explanation of direct and indirect         speech with details Q. What is direct speech?  Direct speech is when you directly quote someone's words within a sentence, typically using quotation marks to indicate the spoken words.  For Example:  Sarah said, "I'm going to the store." Here, "I'm going to the store" is the direct speech, and it's enclosed within quotation marks to show that it's exactly what Sarah said. Direct speech adds authenticity and immediacy to writing, allowing readers to hear the exact words spoken by the character. It's commonly used in storytelling, dialogue, interviews, and reporting to convey the speaker's message accurately. Q. What is Indirect speech? Indirect speech, also known as reported speech, is when you convey someone else's words without quoting them directly. Instead of using quotation marks, you paraphrase what was said, often changing the tense and pronouns to fit the context.  For ex

I fly above the wind, yet can I not arise  And another I have, and all the world I seize on That loseth not locketh holdeth me in prison, And holdeth me not- yet can I scape no wise - Not letteth me live not die at my device And yet of death it giveth me occasion. Without even I see, and without tongue I plain I desire to perish, and yet I ask health. I love another, and yet thus I hate myself,  I feed me in sorrow and laugh in all my pain. Likewise displeaseth me both life and death, And my delight is caused by this strife. I am writing this poem to antonym analyze that to draw Sir Thomas Wyatt has no peace in his life because his beloved left him but I making to convince him that they have made peace in his life by making new happy memories and forgetting that lady and moving on in his life.                   F
