The father said to his daughter, “I am happy with you.” Change into Indirect Speech

1 Answer

  1. Indirect Speech: The professor told his daughter that he was happy with her.

    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.
