She told him to stop staring at her.
- A statement is uttered in the third person when it is used in indirect discourse.
- Me, him, and they pronouns are changed to her, told, and they respectively.
- A grammatical technique called indirect speech is used in linguistics to convey the main idea of an utterance without directly quoting it.
- When information is communicated without the speaker's actual words, the speaker is said to be speaking indirectly. They said you didn't like it, I asked her what her goals were, and people complained about the smoke, as examples.
- The past tense of the verb say indicates that something was previously spoken. The word said is frequently employed to start indirect discourse, as in "I said," "Bill said," or "they said." In these instances, the main verb of the reported statement is shifted into the past.
Hence, the statement in indirect speech is - She told him to stop staring at her.
