He said to me, “Have you prepared your lesson?” Change into Indirect Speech

  1. Indirect Speech: He asked me if I had prepared my lesson.

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

    Present Perfect Tense > Past Perfect Tense.
