Explanation:

Answer 2

She said that she wanted a dictionary.

Explanation:

• The statement given here should be converted to indirect/reported speech.
• When a sentence is converted into its reported speech, the comma and quotation marks must be removed.
• After the word 'said', we must add 'that' in reported form.
• The person within  quotation should be changed accordingly. So 'I' becomes 'she', the speaker.
• The tense must be in past tense in indirect form. So the verb 'want' takes it past tense 'wanted'.
• So the answer is: She said that she wanted a dictionary.
