Question

- Change these sentences from direct to indirect speech.
1. Sagar said, It rained last night​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sagar told that it rained last night

Answer 2

Sagar told that it rained last night. This is the answer.

Indirect speech:

• The words uttered by a person can be reported in two different ways.
• Direct and Indirect.
• When one quotes the exact words of the speaker, we call it direct speech.
• On converting a statement to indirect speech the reporting verb said is converted to told, informed etc.
• Hence the correct answer is: Sagar told that it rained last night.
