Narration কী ? Narration কত প্রকার ও কী কী ? What is narration ?


Narrate অর্থ উক্তি। Narrate থেকে Narration শব্দের উৎপত্তি। কারোও বক্তব্যকেই ইংরেজিতে Narration বা Speech বলে। Narration ২ প্রকার। যথা-

1. Direct Narration (প্রত্যক্ষ উক্তি): বক্তা নিজের কথা নিজের ভাষায় বললে তাকে Direct Narration বলে। যেমন- Fatima says, “I am well.”

2. Indirect Narration (পরোক্ষ উক্তি): বক্তা অন্যের কথা নিজের ভাষায় বললে তাকে Indirect Narration বলে। যেমন- Fatima says that she is well.

Direct Narration কে Indirect Narration এ পরিবর্তন করতে হলে আমাদেরকে প্রথমে কিছু বিষয় সম্পর্কে ধারণা রাখতে হবে। যেমন- Sentence, Verb/Tense, Person, Subject ইত্যাদি।
