Reported Speech! (theory)

Matching Pairs

(3)
When we report what somebody else say, we usually use indirect speech. In indirect speech, we often use a tense which is 'further back' in the past (e.g. worked) than the tense originally used (e.g. work). This is called 'backshift'
Match the tenses with their corresponding 'backshift' tense.
Have fun!
