Direct Speech
Reported Speech

Прямая речь
На письме прямая речь заключается в кавычки.
Точка или какой-либо другой знак препинания ставится внутри кавычек при окончании прямой речи (в русском языке точка или запятая ставятся после кавычек).
Слова автора отделяются от прямой речи запятой, не зависимо от того вводят они прямую речь или стоят после нее.
Примечание: Если же прямая речь является длинным текстом, то в английском языке после вводных слов, так же как и в русском, ставится двоеточие.
