Answer 1

Iran said to me that she works in office.

Nalia said that she is going to clean the room

Usman and Maria said they need new shoes

John said that he know her name and address.

Explanation:

Direct speech describes when something is being repeated exactly as it was – usually in between a pair of inverted commas.

Indirect speech will still share the same information – but instead of expressing someone's comments or speech by directly repeating them, it involves reporting or describing what was said.

Answer:

(i) Iram said that she worked in an office.

(ii) Naila said that she was going to clean the room.

(iii) Usman and Maria said that they needed new shoes
