I want to hear him! 3) a that-clause (noun clause): John said that he had received some good news. 4) a wh -noun clause (especially in negative and questions): Mrs. Johnson didn’t say when she would return. If there is an indirect object, the preposition to must be used. This use of “ say to somebody ” occurs only with long clauses beginning with that.
