    Here said is in the past tense, not a past participle. "I want to go there by bus" is a direct quote and in the quotation marks is what was said at that time, in the simple present tense. But when he recounts the fact that he says "I want to go there by bus", it is a thing of the past, so the simple past tense is used.

    It is the past tense say: it is the most colloquial and common word, which means "to speak", "to speak", to emphasize the words to be said. Such as:

    i want to go there by bus” ,he said .He said, "I'm going to get there by car." ”

    Because it's been said in the past.。。

    The situation in which this sentence is used is equivalent to telling a story. I'm the presenter, and I'll tell you his story.

    He said at the time, "I want to go by bus".

    And I'm telling you this story now. So he said that the sentence was in the past tense

    Indicates that the act of speaking took place in the past.

    our teacher said to us that practice makes perfect.(object clause).

    Practice makes perfect means "practice makes perfect". This is a truth, and thus the "makes" tense does not change, which is expressed in the simple present tense.

    our teacher said to us "practice makes perfect."(indirect speech).

    If you want to follow a verb after a verb, you should use a to connect it in the middle, such as:

    He wants to play basketball

    It takes 10 minutes to get there by bus

    He went to see his mom.: He went to see his mom

    1.Let the teacher recommend a grammar book that suits you, and arrange the learning of different knowledge points according to your actual situation.

    2.If you have the conditions, find a teacher from this school to give you a make-up lesson, some things are still very messy for a long time, but as long as the teacher clicks a little bit it will be clear, you must believe in the teacher's strengths in this regard.

    When changing indirect speech, the following verb should be the same as the predicate verb. tom told me that he had two brothers。As with this, there is no problem.

    When it is followed by the general modern tense, and does not change with the predicate verb of the preceding clause, it is an objective fact. For example, the rotation of the earth around the sun is an objective fact.

    Please see the following explanation:

    said that he was six years old, just to illustrate that he said he was six years old, not unsure of what he meant by being six years old. If he is six years old now, then we can understand it as he said that he is six years old

    However, he can't be six years old all the time, he will grow, his age will change, this is a fact of change, so this sentence is he said that he was six years old. That's probably what he said when he was six years old.

    2.When direct speech becomes indirect speech, only the fixed facts are in the simple present tense, and all other situations are in the past or past tense, depending on the situation. For example:

    The moon revolves around the earth, the sun rises in the east, etc., must be in the simple present tense. eg: he said that the moon orbits around the earth.

    A noun is a word that denotes the name of a thing.

    A verb is a word that expresses the movement, action of a thing.

    Prepositions generally have no actual meaning and function as grammatical associations in sentences. For example, together with nouns, phrases are formed to indicate time, place, manner, etc. Prepositional phrases are generally mostly used as adverbials or adjectives.

    Noun noun

    Verb verb

    1.A clause is a complex meaning that requires a lot of embellishment, and the explanation is passed on to us. Such a simple sentence such as this is, there be can't be expressed, so a relatively complex sentence is needed to use, and there are many kinds of clauses.

    Specifically, there are several categories: definite clauses, noun clauses, and adverbial clauses. There are many more subdivisions.

    2.The infinitive is a verb that does not act as a predicate in a sentence (for example, in Chinese, I take something to eat, English is I will get something to eat, as for eat and get who is the predicate, I am used to English), if you need to use it, and you don't want to use a clause to express it, use the infinitive, generally use to + verb prototype, and there is also a direct verb prototype without to.
