EXPLANATION

• The direct speech is a way of expressing the content of a speech exactly the way it was spoken.
• Example- Ram said to John, "I am not your friend."
• Indirect speech can be defined as reporting the content of someone else's utterance wuthout actually quoting it.
• For example, "Ram said to john that he is not his friend".
• Rules to convert direct speech into indirect speech are as follows;

1. The sentence of indirect speech should end in a full stop.
2. Direct speech are affirmative.
3. All the inverted commas are removed.
4. If the reporting verb is in past tens then all the verb of speech are changed into past tense.
5. Modal verbs such can, and must are changed to 'could', 'might'. etc.
