The people asked whether India would win the match.
- A conversation between two people ie between the first person and the second person is called direct speech.
- Example - Jatin said to Jay, " I'll rock there."
- When the same dialogues are reported to a third person, it's called indirect speech.
- Example - Jatin told jay that he would rock there.
- All the tenses of the direct speech are converted to the past tense in the indirect speech, but if the sentence is already in past tense, it turns to past perfect tense.
- Example -
1. Gyan said to Nishant, " We watch a movie daily.
=> Gyan told Nishant that they watched a movie daily.
- If the direct speech is a universal truth, the tense of the sentence doesn't change in the indirect speech.
- Example -
1. Yash said, " The sun rises in the east."
=> Yash said that the sun rises in the east.
- If the reporting verb is in the present or future tense, the tense of the verb isn't changed in the indirect speech.
- Example -
1. Prem says , "I write a letter."
=> Prem says that he writes a letter.
- If the person addressed to, reports the speech, the second person in the direct speech becomes first person in the indirect speech.
- Example -
1. Priyanka said to me , " You're a genius."
=> Priyanka told me that I was a genius.
