In the following question, a sentence has been given in Direct/Indirect speech. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Indirect/Direct speech.
He said to her, "I will meet you here tomorrow."
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2, i.e. He told her that he would meet her there the following day.
- This option uses the third person perspective to denote indirect speech. It also changes the tense to it's corresponding past form using 'told' and 'would'. This option uses 'there' but it still indicates the same place as denoted by 'here' in the direct form of speech. All these features make this option the correct answer because it follows all the rules of narration.
