Answer:
Father said to me that I should be polite to others
The doctor asked her "Can you buy that? ".
1) Father advised me to be polite to others.
Imperative
Postive - said/ Said to ( reporting verb in direct speech)
Requested/ ordered/ advised/suggested/ warned/ instructed/guided etc ...( Reporting verb in indirect speech)
Conjunction should be added (to + v1) in case of positive sentence.
Negative ( don't + v1)
Conjunction should be added in indirect speech is (not to + v1).
2) The doctor said to her,"Can you buy this?"
This is Yes/ no type interrogative sentence.
'Asked' is changed into 'said to/ said.'
Conjunction 'If / Whether' is removed .
And past tense is changed into present tense ..incase of indirect to direct speech.
