She said to her father, “You are late for the meeting.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: She told her father that he was late for the meeting.

    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.
