She said, “I will inform her that I saw you.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: She said that she would inform her that she had seen me.

    Explanation: If the reporting verb is in the past tense, then the modals like will/shall change to would.

    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 > Past Perfect Tense.
