Question :
Change the sentence into indirect speech.
- She said " I was waiting for you " .
Answer :
She said that she had been waiting for me.
The rules to change a direct speech into an indirect speech are as follows :
- The comma and the double quotations are to be omitted.
- The tense of the sentence inside the quotation does not change if the reported verb is in present tense.
- The tense of the sentence inside the quotation changes accordingly if the reported verb is in past tense.
- Here , the reported verb is in simple past tense, therefore the tense of the sentence inside quotation changes from past continuous tense to past perfect continuous tense.
- ' I ' becomes 'she'.
- 'Was waiting' becomes 'had been waiting'.
- 'You' becomes 'me'.
