Answer 1

Question :

I said, "do you have a pen"?

Step-by-step explanation :

Indirect speech or reported speech mainly refers to a dialogue being said to a third person or in reporting what happened to the third person.

He said "Did you complete your homework"? (direct)

He asked if I completed my homework. (indirect)

In the given example, while writing in indirect/reported form, the sentence changes according to its tense.

⇒ Words like 'this' changes to 'that', 'today' changes to 'that day', 'yesterday' changes to 'the previous day' etc.

⇒ If the sentence is a question, then 'said' is changed to asked.

⇒ The punctuation marks except a full stop (.) can't be used in a indirect speech.

Answer :

I asked if he had a pen.
