Rules to change a sentence from direct to indirect :
⭐ Convey the message given by the first person to the third person is termed as indirect speech.
⭐ The person who conveys is the second person to whom the first person told the compliment or a sentence.
✴ Indirect speech is a report on what someone else said or wrote without using that person's exact words.
Words of direct speech will turn to indirect in the following way :
⭐ Now - Then
⭐ Today - That day
⭐ Last night - previous night
⭐ Said - Told
⭐ Will be - would be
Few Examples :
- My sister said, "Tomorrow's my birthday."
My sister told that tomorrow is her birthday.
- My dad said, "Where is my pen?"
My dad asked where his pen was.
- My friend said, "Did you watch the new movie?"
