Extra Information :

There are some rules that we should keep in mind when converting questions in direct speech into indirect speech :

• The verb 'said' is replaced by the word 'ask'.

• We do not use a conjunction to introduce the reported speech if the question begins with a wh-word.

• The question becomes a statement ending in full stop.
