So the teacher said him to have his lunch.
Explanation:
- To report a conversation refers to how we represent a person's exact speech.
- There exist two main ways of reported speech.
1) Indirect speech
2) Direct speech
- While direct speech represents the same, exact words of the speaker, in indirect speech the exact words are presented in a changed manner.
- For example, Teacher: "Why are you crying?"- It is a direct speech carrying the exact words of the teacher.
- This can be written in indirect speech as - The teacher asked the student why he was crying.
- Also, it is important to note the reporting clause and the reported clause.
- The reporting clause carries the verbs such as- ask, tell, reply, say etc, (usually in past simple tense) and the reported clause shows the words of the original speaker.
- While converting into indirect speech, reporting clause comes first followed by the reported clause.
Hence the given conversation can be converted into reported speech as follows:
The teacher asked the student why he was crying.
The student replied he was hungry.
So the teacher said him to have his lunch.
