Direct and Indirect Speech
- In Direct Speech, we directly quote someone using the exact same words. Inverted commas are used to enclose the reported words.
- For example, He said to me, "I am very sick."
- In Indirect speech, we use our own words to repeat what someone said. Words can be different but the context should remain the same.
- For example, He told me that he was very sick.

Answer:
The indirect speech of the given direct speech is : -
He suggested that we should go to cinema.
Explanation :
- If reported speech started with 'let' in Imperative Sentence and it expresses 'suggestion' or 'proposal', in indirect speech reporting verb will be 'suggest' or 'propose' and after it conjunction 'that' will be used also.
- 'Let us go to cinema' is expressing a suggestion, that's why reporting verb is 'suggested', verb's simple past 'said' confirms it and after it 'that' has been used. 'Us' is an object pronoun of 'we' and it is a plural number. 'Us' indicates 'we' here. After 'should' verb's base form is used and here it is 'go'.
- Examples : Rohit said, "Let’s go for a walk." Its indirect speech is : Rohit suggested that they should go for a walk.
- If reported speech doesn't express suggestion or proposal according to the meaning of the reported speech, in indirect speech reporting verb will take 'warn', 'forbid', 'request', 'urge', 'order', and so on. Example : The teacher said, " Let no one tell a lie." Its indirect speech is : The teacher urged that no one should tell a lie.
