Direct and Indirect Speech

• The statement spoken directly by the speaker is called direct speech.

• The statement reported by some other person is called reported speech or indirect speech.

• The given sentence is imperative. Thus while changing it into indirect speech, the subordinate and reporting clause is joined by 'to.'

• Since 'to' is used, the simplest form of the verb 'be' has been used.
