The above sentence is a simple narration of a statement ,where the brother is just telling to the speaker that they will go to Nainital the next day. Hence, the narration of the sentence is just following the rules of simple statement.

♠️ Rules for Changing direct to indirect speech:

  • We use a linker word like, "that" for joining the speaker's notation and his dialogue. But "that" is generally omitted in spoken English.
  • The pronouns used are also changed accordingly.
  • If the Reporting verb is in present or future tense, the tense of direct speech is not changed.
  • In case of any universal truth, the verb in direct speech doesn't changes.
  • The modals are not changed like must, ought to but should is sometimes changed to would. Yes, will can become would, shall to should etc.

♠️Examples:

Direct- He said, "I do it."

  • Indirect - He said that he did it.

Direct- "We ought to jump", she said.

  • Indirect - She said that they ought to jump.

Direct- He said, "I shall play cricket."

  • Indirect - He said that he would play cricket.
