Did the Gospels give to us the exact words of Jesus, or are they a "paraphrased" recording of them?

Were the Gospel recording for us exact verbatim, or were they more summarizing His main points to us?
Well, as I understand it, the New Testament was written mainly in Greek, with a few words of Aramaic. Jesus spoke in Aramaic, so most of his words at least were in translation, not the exact words he said.
