Question

Change into Indirect speech: (i) The police officer said, "Don't go there."​

Answer 1

The police officer instructed not to go there.

Or, The police officer ordered not to go there.

Or, The police officer forbade to go there.

Explanation:

• The Reported Speech is an Imperative Sentence and so in Indirect Speech, we rewrite the Reporting Verb as 'ordered' or 'instructed'.

• Since there is a negative sense, we write 'not to' to link the Reporting Verb and the Reported Speech.

• A police officer can give an order or an instruction to someone, so we have taken 'ordered' or 'instructed'.

• We can also take 'forbade' and there we do not need to write 'not' because the negative sense is already expressed by 'forbade'.
