Answer 2

The woman asked the man how much he had paid for that hilsa.'

• The first sentence, "How much did you pay for the hilsa" is in a direct speech. On conversion to indirect which is also known as reported speech "did you" will change to 'did he' and 'for the' will change to "for that".

Gopal's wife asked him why his face was half-shaven.

• The second sentence, 'Why is your face half-shaven?' is in a direct speech. For converting to indirect (or reported) speech, 'is' is converted to 'was'.

Gopal told the king that he accepted the challenge.

• The third sentence, 'I accept the challenge, Your Majesty' is in the direct speech. For converting to indirect (or reported) speech, 'I' is converted to 'he' and 'accept' is changed to 'accepted'.

Gopal told the guards that he wanted to see the king.

• The fourth sentence 'I want to see the king' is in the direct speech. For converting it into indirect (or reported) speech, 'I' will be converted to 'he' and 'want' will be converted to 'wanted'.

The king ordered the guard to bring the man to him at once.

• The fifth sentence "Bring the man to me at once" is in a direct speech, for converting to indirect (or reported) speech, we'll add "ordered" in the sentence as the reported word.
