She said to me, “Please repeat what you just said.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: She requested me to repeat what I had just said.

    Explanation: While reporting imperative sentences we use reporting verbs like ask, request, beg, order, advise, wish etc to match the mood of the sentence.

    And 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 (said) > Past Perfect Tense (had said).
