say′er, n.

say

1. ‘say’

When you say something, you use your voice to produce words. The past tense and -ed participle of say is said /sed/.

You use say when you are quoting directly the words that someone has spoken.

‘I feel so happy,’ she said.

‘The problem,’ he said, ‘is that Mr Sanchez is very upset.’

In writing, you can use many other verbs instead of say when you are quoting someone’s words.

In spoken English, you usually use say.

He said to me, ‘What shall we do?’

Be Careful!
In speech, you mention the person and say before quoting their words. Don’t say, for example, ‘‘What shall we do?’ he said to me‘ in spoken English.

You can use it after said to refer to the words spoken by someone.

You could have said it a bit more politely.

I just said it for something to say.

If you are referring in a general way to what someone has expressed, rather than their actual words, use so, not ‘it’. For example, say ‘I disagree with him and I said so‘. Don’t say ‘I disagree with him and I said it‘.

If you wanted more to eat, why didn’t you say so earlier?

I know she liked it because she said so.

You can report what someone has said without quoting them directly using say and a that-clause.

She said she hadn’t slept very well.

They said that smoking wasn’t permitted anywhere in the building.

Be Careful!
Don’t use ‘say’ with an indirect object. For example, don’t say ‘She said me that Mr Rai had left.’ Say ‘She said that Mr Rai had left’ or ‘She told me that Mr Rai had left.’

2. ‘tell’

If you are mentioning the hearer as well as the speaker, you usually use tell, rather than ‘say’. The past tense and -ed participle of tell is told. For example, instead of saying ‘I said to him that his mother had arrived’, say ‘I told him that his mother had arrived’.

‘I have no intention of resigning,’ he told the press.

She told me to sit down.

You say that someone tells a story, lie, or joke.

You‘re telling lies now.

Dad told jokes and stories.

Be Careful!
Don’t say that someone ‘says’ a story, lie, or joke. Don’t say, for example ‘You’re saying lies now‘.

3. ‘ask’

Don’t say that someone ‘says’ a question. Say that they ask a question.

Luka asked me a lot of questions about my job.

I asked what time it was.

4. ‘give’

Don’t say that someone ‘says’ an order or instruction. Say that they give an order or instruction.

Who gave the order for the men to shoot?

She had given clear instructions about what to do while she was away.

5. ‘call’

If you want to say that someone describes someone else in a particular way, you can use say followed by a that-clause. For example, you can say ‘He said that I was a liar’. You can also say that someone calls someone something. For example, you can say ‘He called me a liar’.

She called me lazy and selfish.

6. ‘talk about’

Don’t use say to mention what someone is discussing. Don’t say, for example, ‘He said about his business‘. Say ‘He talked about his business’.

Lucy talked about her childhood and her family.

speak

– say – tell

1. ‘speak’

When you speak, you use your voice to produce words. The past tense of speak is spoke. The -ed participle is spoken.

They spoke very enthusiastically about their trip.

I’ve spoken to Raja and he agrees with me.

2. ‘say’

Don’t use ‘speak’ to report what someone says. Don’t say, for example, ‘He spoke that the doctor had arrived‘. Say ‘He said that the doctor had arrived’.

I said that I would like to teach English.

He said it was an accident.

3. ‘tell’

If you mention the person who is being spoken to as well as what was said, use tell.

He told me that he was a farmer.

I told her what the doctor had said.
