He said "I met her long ago. "The correct indirect speech is:
A He said that he met her long ago.
B He said that he had met her long ago.
C He said that he was met her long ago.
D He said that he has met her long ago.
Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
Assertive Sentence-কে Indirect Speech-এ পরিবর্তন করার নিয়ম:
● Reporting verb 'said' অপরিবর্তিত থাকে এবং Inverted comma উঠে conjunction that বসে।
● Tense পরিবর্তন: Direct speech-টি Past Indefinite Tense-এ (met) আছে, তাই Indirect speech-এ এটি Past Perfect Tense-এ (had + V3 অর্থাৎ had met) রূপান্তরিত হবে।
● Person পরিবর্তন: First person 'I' reporting verb-এর subject অনুযায়ী পরিবর্তিত হয়ে he হবে এবং Third person 'her' অপরিবর্তিত থাকবে।
সুতরাং, সঠিক উত্তর: He said that he had met her long ago.
