Question

Change from indirect speech to direct speech
Rishi asked Manish if he would change places with him.
Select one:
a. Manish said to Rishi, "Would you change places with me.?"
b. Rishi said to Manish, "Can you change places with her?"
c. Rishi said to Manish, "Will you change places with me.?"
O d. Rishi said to Manish, "Would you change places with me.?"​

Answer 1

The sentence will be changed into direct speech as follows:

c. Rishi said to Manish, "Will you change places with me?"

What is direct speech?

• Direct speech is a speech style in which the exact words of the speaker are used, written in between inverted commas.
• A question in direct speech having 'will' is changed into 'would' in indirect speech.
• Option c illustrates the direct speech for the indirect sentence mentioned in the question.
• Other options, such as option a is not correct as Rishi asked Manish, not Manish to Rishi.
