Answer 1

Indirect/Reported Speech refers to speech being said to a third person/reporting what happened to a third person.

Example: Kaitlyn said,"I love gardening." (Direct)

Also, modifications regarding certain words like 'yesterday' changes to 'the previous day', 'can' changes to 'could', 'you' changes to 'I', 'tomorrow' changes to 'the next day' and many other words will have to be made.

The teacher said to the boy, "What are you reading?" (Direct)
