Note: 01. In reporting a declarative sentence, “that” is placed between the reporting verb and the reported statement.
1. If the Reporting Verb is in the Past Tense, the verb in the Reported Speech must also be changed to same form of Past Tense, .
03. If the person addressed reports the speech himself, then the reported verb be changed from ‘said’ to ‘told.’
04. The pronouns of the Direct Speech are changed, where necessary, so that their relations with the reporter and his hearer, rather than with the original speaker, are indicated. Observe the following examples:
Direct : He said to me, ‘I don’t believe you’.
Indirect : He said he didn’t believe me.
Direct : She said to him, ‘I don’t believe you’.
Indirect : She said she didn’t believe him.
Direct : I said to him, ‘I don’t believe him’.
Indirect : I said I didn’t believe him.
Direct : I said to you, ‘I don’t believe you’.
