Question

she said, don't disturb me ( change into indirect speech)

Answer 1

she told me not to disturb her

Answer 2

She told not to disturb her.

Explanation:

• The given statement should be changed into indirect form of speech.
• When we do that, the comma and quotation marks that follow the word 'said' have to be removed.
• The sentence within the quotations "Don't disturb me" is an imperative type of sentence. They are sentences that express an order, advice or a request.
• Here it is an order. So it is an imperative kind.
• We must replace 'said' with 'told' for imperatives.
• Usually indirect forms take past tense. But as it is an imperative type, The verb takes the infinitive form. As it is an negative sentence (we have don't), we should give as 'not to disturb'.
• The personal pronoun within the quotations must be changed accordingly. So 'me' becomes 'her'.
• Hence the answer: She told not to disturb her.
