本文探讨了说话人如何在会话叙述中使用直接转述和间接转述来确立故事人物对故事情节的重要性，并展示故事的插入目的。当故事被设计成关于一个特定的人时，演讲者使用DRS来描述角色的行为和品质，从而标记出角色在情节中的中心地位。当故事被设计成关于非人类现象（例如，医疗保健的质量，附近的噪音等）时，叙述者可以使用IDRS来将人物标记为次要的或甚至与情节无关的。通过操纵报道别人谈话的语法资源，讲故事的人也可以操纵故事人物的中心地位，使其成为叙事的切入点，或者说故事的“关于性”。
This paper explores how speakers use direct reported speech (DRS) and indirect reported speech (IDRS) in conversational narratives to establish the importance of particular story characters to the plot and to display the interactional goal of the story. When the story is designed as being about a particular person, the speaker uses DRS to depict the character’s behavior and qualities, thus marking the centrality of the character to the plot. When the story is designed as being about a non-human phenomenon (e.g. the quality of healthcare, the noise in the neighborhood, etc.), the narrator may use IDRS to mark characters as secondary or even tangential to the plot. By manipulating the grammatical resources of reporting someone else’s talk, storytellers can also manipulate the centrality of the story characters to the interactional point of the narrative, or the story’s “aboutness.”
