⑥ John told her dont do that again.
这里的dont do要变成not to do才对。理由是:祈使句变成间接引语时的形式是不定式动词:to + verb / not to + verb,如:to come / not to come; to do / not to do.
⑦ She asked me where was I going.
这里的was I词序不对, 要变成I was才是,因为间接疑问句(indirect question)里的词序和叙述句一样,是正常词序,不是倒装法,如:
⑧ He wanted to know who that girl was.
⑨ John asked Helen if she was free.
⑩ She asked me whether I could help her.
如果词序是倒装形式,就错了:
*who was that girl.
*if was she free.
*whether could I help her.
关于间接疑问句,还有一点必须注意的是,直接疑问句里的疑问词要照用, 如例⑧的who。如果没有疑问词,就要借重连接词 if或 whether之助,如例⑨和⑩便是。
在结束本文之前,顺便提一提怎样把表示惊叹或愿望的直接引语转成间接引语。
11. He said, Alas! I am undone.
12. Bravo! You have done a good job, Mary, said the teacher.
13. Good Heaven! Tom cried, ll never lie again.
把11-13,转变为14-16时, 可以用恰当的动词把深层的意思反映出来,甚至加些原文没有的字眼,也无所谓:
