Answers
Answer:
Indirect speech is like that:
Renu said/told that she was geting late for school.
Renu said that she was getting late for school.
Explanation:
1. There is a direct for of speech given in the question. We are asked to convert or transform this direct form of speech into indirect form of speech. Therefore, the indirect speech will be: Renu said that she was getting late for school.
2. Direct form of speech is that form of speech in which the message of the speaker is said to someone else in exact words as spoken by the speaker. While indirect form of speech is that speech in which the speaker's message is conveyed in our own words.
3. Inverted commas are removed while transforming the speech in indirect form. The pronouns that are in first person form transforms according to the subject of the reporting verb. Here in the given sentence, the pronoun 'I' is changed into 'she' because Renu is a girl.
4. While converting a direct into indirect speech, the simple present form of tense is changed into simple past tense. The sentence given is in the form of simple present tense hence we replace 'am getting late' with 'was getting late' to make it in the form of simple past tense.
5. For example: Riya said, "I am happy". (Direct speech)
Riya said that she was happy. (Indirect speech)
