Correct Question:

I said to my brother, "This is not the answer to my question."

Answer:

I told my brother that that was not the answer to my question.

Explanation:

  • Narrative speeches are also called Reported Speech.

Here are a few rules you follow while changing direct into indirect/narrative :

  • Usage of reported speech: This speech tells you about what someone said but doesn't report you in the original words of the speaker.

  • Removal of quotation: As now you are already reporting it, you need to remove the quotation marks too.

  • Changing pronoun: f you not the one to report on your speech "I" changes to "he" or "she".

indirect speech is when you tell about a particular conversation that happened at last, to someone else.

  • One must change the tenses of a sentence.

  • If something is a universal truth or any fact or a proverb of a quotation, NO changes take place in the form of tenses.

Also, following changes happens:

Now - Then

Today - That day

Said - Told

Will be - Would be
