Direct speech: in the direct speech sentences we give the exact words used by the speaker. This is called the Direct Speech.
Ex.: Meena says, “There is no water in the jug.”
Indirect speech: in the indirect speech sentences we do not give the exact words of the speaker but give only the substance of what he said. This is called the Indirect Speech or Narration.
Ex.: Meena says that there is no water in the jug.
