Question :
Grandpa said,"what is the time by your watch? "
Change into Reported speech
Answer :
Grandpa asked what the time was by my watch.
The rules to change a direct speech into an indirect speech are as follows :
- The comma and the double quotations are to be 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 present tense to simple past tense.
- 'Is' becomes 'was' .
- 'Your' becomes 'my'.
- 'Said' becomes 'asked' since it is an interrogative sentence.
