• A direct speech represents the speaker's exact words spoken.
• When converting a phrase to direct speech, we should use the reporting verb appropriate for the tense, delete conjunctions such as "if", "that", etc., and add punctuation, a question mark, or a full-stop if required, as well as a comma before the actual statement whereas the opposite is done to convert a phrase to an indirect speech by converting the sentence to past.
• If the sentence is exclamatory, we use reporting verbs such as exclaimed, admired, and cried based on the emotion expressed in the sentence.
• In the given statement, the reported word is employed as an exclamation based on the speaker's mood in direct speaking.
• As a result, the supplied narrative in indirect speech will be: He exclaimed sadly that he was a great fool.
