Select the correct direct form of the given sentence.
Amanda asked Mohit how she had offended his friend
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Amanda said to Mohit, “How have I offended your friend?”
The correct direct form is "Amanda said to Mohit, 'How have I offended your friend?'" because in direct speech, the tense shifts from past perfect ("had offended") to present perfect ("have offended") to reflect how Amanda would have phrased the question.
The pronoun "she" changes to "I" to indicate that Amanda is speaking about herself, and the question structure aligns with the standard direct speech format, placing the auxiliary verb "have" before the subject "I."
