Select the option that expresses the given sentence in indirect voice.
She said, "I have completed my task."
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
When converting a direct speech sentence to indirect (reported) speech, several changes are necessary:
The reporting verb "said" is followed by the conjunction "that".
The pronoun "I" changes to "she" to match the subject of the reporting verb (She).
The present perfect tense ("have completed") in direct speech changes to the past perfect tense ("had completed") in indirect speech when the reporting verb is in the past tense ("said").
Possessive pronoun "my" changes to "her".
Option ‘B’ has all these changes.
