The master said to his servant ," Do as I told you " - change into indirect speech
Answers
Indirect/Reported Speech refers to a dialogue being told to a third person/reporting what happened to a third person.
Example: He said,"I don't know the answer." (Direct)
He said that he didn't know the answer. (Indirect)
In the above example, when writing in indirect/reported form, the sentence changes according to its tense. Also, modifications regarding certain words like 'this' changes to 'that', 'tomorrow' changes to 'the next day', 'will' changes to 'would', 'can' changes to 'could' and many other words have to be made. Also, if the sentence is contains an interrogation, then 'said' changes to 'asked'. Punctuation marks other than a full stop (.) cannot be used in indirect/reported speech.
The master said to his servant,"Do as I told you." (Direct)
The master ordered his servant to do as he had told him. (Indirect)
Significant details about the above sentence :-
》 The reporting verb is in past form
》 The reported speech is an imperative sentence
Since the reported speech indicates an order so the reporting verb will be changed from 'said' to 'ordered'
So to connect the sentence the sentence we should use 'to' infinitive.
Also pronouns will be changed according to the speech.
The changes of tense will also occur
Again some words will also get changes when turn into direct to indirect . Such as
these -- those
tomorrow -- the next day , etc
The master said his servant, " Do as I told you " ( direct )
So finally the indirect form of the above sentence will be --
The master ordered his servant to do as he had told him .
( indirect)
