SSC Stenographer - 13 Oct 2023 - Shift 3 • English • Q62

Select the option that expresses the following sentence in indirect speech.
Rahul says, “I go to the gym daily.”

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rahul says that he goes to the gym daily.

  • The correct indirect speech form is "Rahul says that he goes to the gym daily" because it adjusts the pronoun "I" to "he" to reflect Rahul's perspective and changes "go" to "goes" to maintain consistent present tense with the reporting verb "says."
  • The phrase "Rahul says that" introduces the reported speech, ensuring the statement is accurately conveyed in indirect speech.
