If the direct speech statement begins with the words DO NOT, then the word NOT is placed before TO in the indirect speech statement. For example : 'Do not walk on the grass,' said the gardener. The gardener commanded us not to walk on the grass.

Answer:
The indirect speech of the given sentence will be-
He ordered me not to walk on the grass.
Explanation:
- Reported or indirect speech is when a conversation is expressed in words other than those exact words uttered by the speaker(s).
- In the reported speech, the given verbs are changed into past tense.
- In case of interrogative sentence, we use the verb "asked".
- In case of assertive sentence, we use the verbs like "told", "said", "suggested" or "replied".
- In case of imperative sentence, we use the verbs like "ordered", "requested" and "advised".
- In case of exclamatory sentence, we use the verb "exclaimed".
- If the reporting speech is an interrogative sentence, in reported speech it will be changed into assertive sentence.
- If the reporting speech is an exclamatory sentence, in reported speech it will be changed into assertive sentence.
Thus the indirect speech of the given sentence will be-
He ordered me not to walk on the grass.
