Question

Change the direct speech into indirect.
Ramesh says, “ I have done my work.”
They say, “ we shall play football.”
Gopal says, “ you cannot play well.”
Rashmi says, “ my sister is a doctor. ”
Tara and Nishi say, “ we do not watch movies.” ​

Answer 1

To change direct speech into direct, remove commas, replace it with 'that', and also change the pronoun and tense.

Indirect sentences:

1. Ramesh says that he has done his work.
2. They say that they will play football.
3. Gopal says that I cannot play well.
4. Rashmi says that her sister is a doctor.
5. Tara and nishi say that they do not watch movies.

If the narrator's speech is in the present tense, the tense of the remaining part doesn't change.
