Convert the given sentence into indirect speech.

Latha said to me, ''where did you go yesterday''.

Answer:

Direct Speech: Latha said to me, ''where did you go yesterday''.

Indirect Speech: Latha asked me where I had gone the previous day.

What are direct and indirect speeches?

1. Direct Speech:

  • In Direct speech, we repeat the exact words by the speaker.
  • Reporting speech is placed between inverted commas.
  • For example, He said, " I have lost my pen".

2. Indirect Speech:

  • In Indirect Speech, we repeat in our own words what is said by the speaker.
  • Generally, we use "said that" in this speech.
  • For example, He said that he had lost his pen.

The given direct speech is past tense so we changed it into past perfect tense in indirect speech.
