He asked if I had posted the letter.

Explanation:

Reported speech can be explained as how we represent other people's speech or what we say ourselves. There are two different types of reported speech -

1. Direct reported speech - As a form of transcription, direct or quoted speech is spoken or written text that reproduces speech or thought in its original form as expressed by the original speaker. In narration, it is usually enclosed in quotation marks but may be enclosed in guillemets (« ») in some languages.
2. Indirect reported speech - In linguistics, indirect reported speech is a grammatical device for reporting the content of another utterance without directly quoting it. In fiction, the "utterance" may amount to a muffled thought passing through a stream of consciousness as reported by an omniscient narrator.
