John said, “I want to see a film.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: John said that he wanted to see a film.

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

    Present Indefinite Tense > Past Indefinite Tense.
