Indirect speech, sher indirekt tal, är ett viktigt koncept i franska som gör det möjligt att rapportera någons ord utan att använda ett direkt citat. Det kan översättas som ”han sa att…” or ”hon frågade om…”. Att använda indirekt tal kräver ofta en förändring av tempus, pronomen och ibland även av lokala uttryck. Här kommer vi att öva på att konvertera meningar från direkt till indirekt tal för att hjälpa er att bemästra detta grammatiska fenomen.
