Question
In the following question, a sentence has been given in
Direct/Indirect speech. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best express the same sentence in Indirect/Direct speech. Geetal said, " I bought a Honda City yesterday."Solution
While converting a sentence into indirect speech, following rules are applied- When ‘say’, ‘says’ or ‘said’ is not followed by object, then in that case it remains same. The Past indefinite tense changes to Past perfect tense. Hence, the helping verb 'had' is used. Thus, the correct answer is- Geetal said that she had bought a Honda City the previous day.
