Answer 2

Change into indirect speech

1. He said to Sita, "I have passed the test."

He said to Sita that he had passed the test.

• The above question is in present perfect tense so we have changed it into past perfect tense in indirect speech (''had + third form of the verb'')

2. My friend said to me, "I shall go to Delhi tomorrow."

My friend said to me that he/she would go to Delhi the next day.

• The above question is in the simple future tense.

• ''shall'' is used for first-person ''I''. So in indirect speech when we use third-person we use ''would''.
• The word ''tomorrow'' is changed to ''the next day'' in indirect speech.
