She says to me, “Was your brother going to market?” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: She asks me whether my brother was going to market.

    Explanation: When the reporting verb is in the present tense (says) or in the future tense (will say), the tense in the indirect (reported) speech remains the same.

    However, the pronouns will change.

    And if the sentence is interrogative, we use the reporting verbs – ask, enquire, etc.

    Note: While answering to “yes or no questions”, we use if or whether.
