Notes
1. Indirect quotation is used when the speaker quotes what somebody else said or when the speaker passes his/her or someone else's thought to the listener. It takes the various forms of [QUOTED MESSAGEE]���ϴ�:
 

  •  . . .�� ��/�ؿ�/�Ѵ�/�մϴ� when quoting a general message that currently goes around,

  •  
  •  . . .�� �߾�/�߾��/�ߴ�/�߽��ϴ� when quoting a specific message that was said in the past.

  •  
  •  When the quoted message is/was said by someone who is respected, the honorific foms of �ϴ� are used:

  •     . . .���ϼ�/�ϼ���/�ϽŴ�/�Ͻʴϴ� in the present tense
        . . .���ϼ̾�/�ϼ̾��/�ϼ̴�/�ϼ̽��ϴ� in the past tense
     
  •  In colloquial speech, especially in Seoul, the indirect quotation takes the verb �׷�( ��)/�׷���(��) instead of �ؿ�/�߾�(��). Also the quotation particle �� is often deleted in colloquial speech. For example,

  •      ��Ƽ��:       ��������, ���� �� �ٲ� �ּ���.
       ��������:   ���� ���� �� ���Դµ�.
                   ���� �� �ʴ´�(��) �׷����.

    2. The quoted message itself also takes different endings of the Plain style depending on the sentence type of the quoted message, that is, whether it is a statement, question, command, or proposal, and on the time of the event in the quoted message.
     

  • ��(��/��/��)�ٰ��ϴ� when the quoted message is a statement:

  •         V���´ٰ��ϴ� with a verb whose stem ends in a consonant
            V�����ٰ��ϴ� with a verb stem ending in a vowel.
            A���ٰ��ϴ� with an adjective
         ������ϴ� with the copula -��
            V/A����/�Ҵٰ��ϴ� when the event in the quoted message occurred prior to the actual saying of the message.
     
  • ������/(��)��/�����İ��ϴ� when the quoted message is a question:

  •        V�����İ��ϴ� with a verb
            A��(��)�İ��ϴ� with an adjective and the copula
            V/A������/���İ��ϴ�
     
  • ��(��)����ϴ� when the quoted message is a command or request. Note that ��(��)�� is used insed of �����/�ƶ� of the Plain style.t

  •  
  •  ���ڰ��ϴ� when the quoted message is a proposal.

  •  

     

                            Standard                                                 Colloquial
    Statement     V����/���ٰ���(��)/�߾�(��)         ����/����(��) �׷�(��)/�׷���(��)
                        A���ٰ���(��)/�߾�(��)                 ����(��) �׷�(��)/�׷���(��)
                 ����/�ٰ���(��)/�߾�(��)                 ����/�ٰ��׷�(��)/�׷���(��)

    Question     V�����İ���(��)/�߾�(��)                 �����ı׷�(��))/�׷���(��)
                        A��(��)�İ���(��)/�߾�(��)             ��(��)�ı׷�(��))/�׷���(��)
                 ����/�Ҵ��İ���(��)/�߾�(��)         ����/�Ҵ��ı׷�(��))/�׷���(��)

    Proposal         V���ڰ���(��)/�߾�(��)                 ���ڱ׷�(��)/�׷���(��)

    3. The act of saying may be indicated by a different verb than �ϴ� if the specific nature of saying is to be specified, as in (1) and (4):

         ����/��������ִ� Convey/pass along the message that . . .
        ������/(��)�İ������ Ask if/whether . . .
        ��(��)����������ִ� Instruct someone to . . .

    4. The indirect quotation ���ٰ��ؿ�/�׷��� is similar to the hearsay expression ����(��)/ ��(��) in that the speaker conveys somebody else's message or thought. The difference between the two is that the main purpose of the hearsay expression ����(��)/��(��), as in ��Ƽ�갡 �ڰ��ִ��, is to convey the content of the message itself, often even without revealing who the primary speaker is, whereas the main purpose of the indirect quotation �� �ٰ��ؿ�/�׷��� is to quot someone's speech.
