Answers
Explanation:
Deeksha asked if she had performed the task she gave her last day.
The indirect speech for the given statement is :
Deeksha asked if I had performed the task she had given me the previous day.
• Since the given statement is a question, the verb 'said' is replaced with 'asked' in the indirect speech and the comma is replaced with 'if'.
• Second person changes into first or third person.
• When it is not specified who the speaker is addressing to, it is assumed that the addressee is the one reporting the speech. Therefore, 'you' is changed to 'I' and 'me' depending upon the usage as the speech is being reported by me.
• While reporting a speech, both present perfect tense and past tense are changed into past perfect. Following this rule, 'have performed' is changed to "had performed" and 'gave' is changed to "had given".
• It is a rule to change 'yesterday' to "the previous day" in an indirect speech.
