He said to me, "Do you know me"? Idenitify the correct indirect speech
A He asked me if I know him
B he asked if I do know him
C He asked me if I knew him.
D He asked me if I had known him
Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
Direct Speech: He said to me, "Do you know me?"
নিয়ম প্রয়োগ:
- Reporting verb 'said to' পরিবর্তিত হয়ে asked হবে (কারণ প্রশ্ন করা হয়েছে)।
- Inverted comma উঠে গিয়ে conjunction হিসেবে if বসবে।
- Question form পরিবর্তিত হয়ে Statement form হবে এবং Tense পরিবর্তন হবে (know → knew, কারণ reporting verb অতীতে আছে)।
- Pronoun পরিবর্তন: you → I, me → him।
- সঠিক Indirect Speech: He asked me if I knew him.
