I said to him, “I was your neighbour.” Change into Indirect Speech

2 Answers

  1. Indirect Speech: I told him that I had been his neighbour.

    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 > Past Perfect Tense.
