§ The Rules of the Sequence of Tenses

 

Правила согласования времен действуют для дополнительных придаточных предложений: если в главном предложении глагол употребляется в прошедшем времени, то в придаточном глагол ставится в одном из прошедших времен:

1 Past Indefinite Tense – действие в придаточном предложении совпадает по времени с главным предложением:

I said I didn't know who the robber was.

2 Past Perfect Tense – действие в придаточном предложении предшествует действию в главном предложении:

They explained how they had planned the robbery.

3 Future In the Past Tense – действие в придаточном предложении следует за действием главного предложения:

They were sure they would find the robber.

В придаточных предложениях, начинающихся с вопросительных слов, используется прямой порядок слов:

Не asked the secretary why the mail had not been sent.
