He said to me, “Did you go home?” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: He asked me if had gone home.

    Explanation: When the reporting verb is in the past (said) and the direct speech is in the past indefinite tense, then the indirect (reported) speech will change into the past perfect tense.

    Past Indefinite Tense (did go) > Past Perfect Tense (had gone).

    And if the sentence is interrogative, we use the reporting verbs like asked, enquired, etc.
