The doctor said to him, “Are you feeling better?” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: The doctor asked him if he was feeling better.

    Explanation: When the reporting verb is in the past (said) and the direct speech is in the present continuous tense, then the indirect (reported) speech will change into the past continuous tense.

    Present Continuous Tense > Past Continuous Tense.

    And if the sentence is interrogative, we use the reporting verbs – asked, enquired, etc.

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