Report the following in ‘Indirect speech’. He said to me, ''How did you do it?''
A He enquired of me how I had done it.
B He said to me if I had done it
C He said to me that I had done it
D He enquired of me if had done it
Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
Interrogative sentence এর Reported speech যদি Interrogative Pronoun (Who, Whom, Whose, What, Which ইত্যাদি) বা Interrogative Adverb (Why, How, Where,when ইত্যাদি) দ্বারা শুরু হয়, তবে if/whether বসে না, ঐ word টিই বসে। এক্ষেত্রেও sentence টির Assertive form বসে।
Direct: He said to me, ''How did you do it?
Indirect: He enquired of me how I had done it
