Answer: Direct is when exact speech is in quotation marks. Indirect is the exact opposite of this.

Step-by-step explanation:

Indirect>>>Ellen said that she would wash the dishes.

Direct>>>"I would wash the dishes "said Ellen.

Direct speech: the reporting of speech by repeating the actual words of a speaker for example "I'm going" she said.

Indirect speech: indirect speech is a means of expressing the content of statements without quoting them explicitly as is done in direct speech.
