Answer:

The two ways of relating what a person has said are 1)direct and 2)indirect (reported speech).In direct speech, the original speaker's exact words are repeated. Direct speech is found in plays and quotations. In indirect/reported speech, the exact meaning is expressed but not necessarily using the original speaker's exact words. Pronouns and possessive adjectives usually change from first or second person to the third person except when the speaker is reporting his own words. Sometimes a noun can be inserted to avoid doubt.

When we turn direct questions into direct speech, the following changes are necessary: Tenses, pronouns, and possessive adjectives, and adverbs of time and place change as in the statements. The interrogative form of the verb changes to the affirmative form. The question mark (?) is therefore omitted in indirect questions.

When the direct speech begins with a question word ( when, where, who, why etc) the question word is repeated in the indirect question.

If there is no question word (why, how etc.) if or whether must be used
