Answer 2

Answer:

The indirect speech is :

• He said that he didn't like chocolate.

Explanation :

• Here reporting is unavailable but we can assume and it is mentioned above.

• Reported speech is written in simple present tense. According to grammatical if reporting verb is written in simplest past tense, present indefinite tense of reported speech will turn into simple past tense, so do has turned into 'did'. As it is a negative sentence, not will be added after it ( did + not = didn't ). Direct speech's I is indicating he because 'I don't like chocolate' is said by him. After didi root verb is always used. That has been used as a linker or introductory conjunction.

• Example : She said that she would come back soon.
