My friend said to me, “Your uniform is very dirty.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: My friend told me that my uniform was very dirty.

    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.
