Aditi said, “I am not invested in the project anymore.”
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Aditi said that she was not invested in the project anymore.
Changes required:
-
Conjunction: Remove the inverted commas and use “that”.
-
Pronoun: “I” changes to “she” (since the subject is Aditi).
-
Tense: The reporting verb “said” is in the past tense, so the present tense “am” changes to “was”.
-
Adverb of time: “Anymore” remains unchanged, as it can be used in both direct and indirect speech.
Converted sentence: Aditi said that she was not invested in the project anymore.
Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
