Question

2. The tourist said, "Can you tell me the way to the nearest hotel?' 'Yes, said the villager. ffion!
​

Answer 1

By changing the narration we will get ''the tourist asked the villager if he could tell him the way to the nearest hotel and the villager said yes to him''.

A few things should be crystal clear:

• Changing the narration entails switching from a direct or indirect to another speech.

• In indirect speaking, we repeat the speaker's message in our own words.

• Inadvertently, someone else delivers it.

• The speaker writes his own words exactly as he delivers them in an indirect speech.

• These are the words exactly as they are, with no changes.
