Answer 1

Answer:

The indirect speech of the given sentence will be-

Shyam told Sita that she had been playing tennis.

Explanation:

• Reported or indirect speech is when a conversation is expressed in words other than those exact words uttered by the speaker(s).
• In the reported speech, the given verbs are changed into past perfect tense if the verb of the reporting speech is given in simple past tense.
• In case of interrogative sentence, we use the verb "asked".
• In case of assertive sentence, we use the verbs like "told", "said", "suggested" or "replied".
• In case of imperative sentence, we use the verbs like "ordered", "requested" and "advised".
• In case of exclamatory sentence, we use the verb "exclaimed".
• If the reporting speech is an interrogative sentence, in reported speech it will be changed into assertive sentence.
• If the reporting speech is an exclamatory sentence, in reported speech it will be changed into assertive sentence.

Thus the indirect speech of the given sentence will be-

Shyam told Sita that she had been playing tennis.
