Answer:
I asked if I might help you.
Explanation:
Direct Speech: "May I help you" I said.
Indirect Speech: I asked if I might help you.
Some reasons of changing of direct speech into indirect speech are as follows as:
→ The auxiliary verb "may" is changed to "might" which is an auxiliary verb for past tense.
→ The word "said" is changed into the word "asked" because in indirect speech, the word "asked" is used as a reported verb, except the word "said" is used as a reported verb in the universal truths.
→ The word "if" or "whether" is used in reported speech.
→ This direct speech is changed into past tense during changing in indirect speech from the direct speech.
→ Indirect speech changes the tense but the meaning of the tense remains same.
