Question :

Change the the sentence into indirect speech.

  • Geetha said to Vimal, "How did you manage to locate my house?"

Answer :

Geetha asked Vimal how he had managed to locate her house.

The rules to change a direct speech into an indirect speech are as follows :

  • The comma and the double quotations are omitted.
  • The tense of the sentence inside the quotation does not change if the reported verb is in present tense.
  • The tense of the sentence inside the quotation changes accordingly if the reported verb is in past tense.
  • Here , the reported verb is in simple past tense, therefore the tense of the sentence inside quotation changes from simple past tense to past perfect tense.
  • The sentence inside the quotation is an interrogative sentence.
  • Hence , 'Said' changes to 'asked'.
