There are two ways to report what someone says or thinks:
Direct Speech
Direct speech shows a person’s exact words. Quotation marks (“....”) are a sign that the words are the exact words that a person used.
Example
Hai asked, "Where are you going?" Manny replied, "I'm going home."
Reported Speech
Reported speech puts the speaker's words or ideas into a sentence without quotation marks. Noun clauses are usually used. In reported speech, the reader does not assume that the words are the speaker's exact words; often, they are a paraphrase of the speaker's words.
Example
Hai asked Manny where he was going. Manny said he was going home.
Note: Use of the word "that" is optional in reported speech. Both of the following sentences are correct:
The child said that they were lost.
The child said they were lost.
