 Direct to Indirect Speech – Special Rules (Part 2) | Oxford Grammar by R.K. Sinha

 Reported Speech (Indirect Speech) में बदलाव के विशेष नियम

जब हम Direct Speech को Indirect Speech में बदलते हैं, तो कुछ Special Rules को ध्यान में रखना जरूरी होता है।

 Rule 1: Time & Place Expressions के बदलाव

Direct Speech में दिए गए Time & Place शब्दों को Indirect Speech में बदलते समय परिवर्तन करना पड़ता है।

Direct Speech Indirect Speech
Today That day
Tomorrow The next day / The following day
Yesterday The previous day / The day before
Now Then
Here There
This That
These Those
Ago Before
Next week/month/year The following week/month/year
Last week/month/year The previous week/month/year

Example:
Direct: He said, “I will go to Delhi tomorrow.”
Indirect: He said that he would go to Delhi the next day.

 Rule 2: Modals (Can, Will, Shall, May) के बदलाव

Direct Speech Indirect Speech
Can Could
Will Would
Shall Should
May Might
Must Had to
Have to Had to

Example:
Direct: She said, “I can solve this problem.”
Indirect: She said that she could solve that problem.

Direct: He said, “I will complete my work.”
Indirect: He said that he would complete his work.

 Rule 3: Reporting Verbs के Special Changes

कई बार Reporting Verb को भी बदलना पड़ता है, खासकर जब भावनाएँ दर्शानी हों।

Direct Speech Reporting Verb Indirect Speech Reporting Verb
Said to (for statements) Told
Said Said (same)
Says Says (same)
Will say Would say
Ask (for questions) Asked
Command Ordered
Request Requested
Suggest Suggested
Exclaim Exclaimed
Promise Promised

Example:
Direct: He said to me, “You should work hard.”
Indirect: He told me that I should work hard.

Direct: She said, “I may visit my grandmother.”
Indirect: She said that she might visit her grandmother.

 Rule 4: Special Cases – ‘Yes’ और ‘No’ का परिवर्तन

यदि Yes / No से उत्तर दिया गया हो, तो उसे that + subject + verb के रूप में लिखा जाता है।

Example:
Direct: He said, “Yes, I will help you.”
Indirect: He said that he would help me.

Direct: She said, “No, I don’t like ice cream.”
Indirect: She said that she didn’t like ice cream.

 Rule 5: Question Sentences को Indirect Speech में बदलना

Interrogative (प्रश्नवाचक) वाक्य बदलते समय:
 “Said” को “Asked” में बदलते हैं।
 If / Whether का प्रयोग Yes/No Questions में होता है।
 WH-questions (what, where, how, etc.) को बिना If / Whether के इस्तेमाल किया जाता है।

Example 1 (Yes/No Question):
Direct: He said, “Do you like cricket?”
Indirect: He asked if I liked cricket.

Example 2 (WH-Question):
Direct: She said, “Where are you going?”
Indirect: She asked where I was going.

 Rule 6: Exclamatory और Imperative Sentences के बदलाव

Exclamatory Sentences (भावनात्मक वाक्य) में exclaimed with joy/sorrow/surprise का प्रयोग किया जाता है।
Imperative Sentences (आदेश/अनुरोध) में ordered, requested, advised का प्रयोग किया जाता है।

Example (Exclamation):
Direct: He said, “Wow! What a beautiful place!”
Indirect: He exclaimed with joy that it was a beautiful place.

Example (Imperative):
Direct: The teacher said, “Study hard for the exam.”
Indirect: The teacher advised us to study hard for the exam.

 Quick Summary of Changes in Indirect Speech

Change Type Direct Speech Indirect Speech
Tenses Present → Past “I am happy” → “He said he was happy”
Time & Place Today → That day “I will go today” → “He said he would go that day”
Modals Will → Would, Can → Could “She can sing” → “She said she could sing”
Reporting Verbs Said to → Told, Ask → Asked “She said to me” → “She told me”
Yes/No Answers “Yes/No” removed “Yes, I can” → “He said that he could”
WH-Questions No ‘that’, same question word “Where are you going?” → “He asked where I was going”
Imperatives Ordered, requested, advised “Go there!” → “He ordered me to go there”

Practice Exercise
