Answer 2

Answer:

When using indirect or reported speech, the form changes. Usually indirect speech is introduced by the verb said, as in I said, Bill said, or they said. Using the verb say in this tense, indicates that something was said in the past. In these cases, the main verb in the reported sentence is put in the past

Explanation:

Told needs always an object along with it in sentence. Said is used to report what someone else has spoken. Told is used to report what someone else has spoken to a specific person or a group of persons. Said is used prominently in indirect speech.
