Question

s. The said, I must go
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The indirect form of this sentence is most directly “He said that he must go now” or perhaps more reflective of tense, “He said that he had to go [now/then/at that time]”. The goal of indirect speech is to reflect what someone has said without quoting them directly. This is achieved by using the preposition “that” and converting 1st person quotations into 2nd or 3rd person dependent upon the context.
