Choose the option that is the most appropriate conversion of the following sentence into Direct Speech. She told me that she had been learning French for three months.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The original sentence uses past perfect continuous tense ("had been learning"), which indicates an action that started in the past and continued up until another point in the past. When converting to direct speech, this tense shifts back to the present perfect continuous ("have been learning") to represent the action ongoing up to the moment of speaking in the direct quote.
