Lesson 1.10.2010

This lesson I found it interesting learning about direct speech - speech marks, indirect speech - no speech marks, attributed speech - e.g. he said and unattributed speech - 'free' speech, indirect. I found this interesting because although I knew there were different ways to write what someone is saying and who they're saying it to, I was never able to give the different ways names. I also liked looking at how this affected the reader, for example when something is not described as a thought straight away, we assume it to be  'fact'. This encourages the reader to see things from the person with the thought's point of view.
