Explanation

In indirect speech, "Will you" becomes "if you would" after a reporting verb like "asked."

"Tomorrow" changes to "next day" in indirect speech.

• The correct answer is: He wished that I might live long.
• The original sentence is a blessing or a wish, and when reported indirectly, it becomes a wish or a prayer, not a statement or an order.

Explanation

When we report someone's speech, we need to change the pronouns to match the context.

In this case, "he" asked "me" to meet "him" (not "me" or "you").

So, the correct reported speech is:

"He asked me to meet him at the cinema."

Explanation

She directed us to keep quiet over there.

Imperative sentences in indirect speech use verbs like told, ordered, directed + to-infinitive.

"Here" changes to "there" in indirect speech.

Explanation

The original sentence is a direct question, and when reporting it in indirect speech, we use the verb "asked" and the correct word order (subject + verb + question word).

The correct indirect speech is:

"My friend asked me if Saima had talked to Sonia."

Explanation

She said to her mother, "I am going to the market."

In direct speech, "she was" (in indirect) changes back to "I am", because the speaker is quoting herself directly.

The reporting verb "told" changes to "said to" in direct speech when a dialogue is quoted.

Explanation

Explanation

The correct indirect form is "Abdul told that it was four O'clock then."

It adjusting the tense and time reference accordingly.

Explanation

In indirect speech, present tense "am" changes to "were", and "today" changes to "that day."

The reporting verb "said" is in the past tense, so the reported speech must also shift accordingly.
