In the following question, a sentence is given in Direct/Indirect speech. Out of the four alternatives choose the one which best expresses the sentence in Indirect/Direct Speech. She said to me, ''Where are you going?" Correct Answer She asked me where I was going.
The correct answer is option 2.
While changing the narration of an interrogative sentence, we need to follow the steps given below-
- The reporting verb 'said' is changed into asked or enquired.
- The second person 'you' will be changed into 'I'.
- The words like when, where, how, why, or what do not change in the indirect narration.
- The sentence is in present continuous tense which will be changed to past continuous tense. (was going)
Eventually, we wil get the final sentence-"She asked me where I was going."
