Question

Convert the sentence into DIRECT SPEECH: He said that he would meet me in the library.

• A. He said, “He will meet you in the library”
• B. He said, “He will meet me in the library”
• C. He said, “I will meet you in the library”
• D. He said, “I will meet him in the library”

Hint:

When changing from indirect to direct speech, restore original pronouns and reverse tense back to its original form.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: When converting indirect speech to direct speech, restore the original pronouns and tense. Explanation: In indirect speech, “he would meet me” changes back to “I will meet you” in direct speech. The pronoun “he” becomes “I” (original speaker), and “me” becomes “you” (listener). The modal “would” changes back to “will.” Therefore, the correct direct speech form is: He said, “I will meet you in the library.”
