The doctor said to her, “You are not sick.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: The doctor told her that she was not sick.

    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.
