\u200bIn Part 2 of R.K. Sinha’s “Oxford Current English Grammar,” the focus is on converting direct speech to indirect speech, specifically addressing the changes in tense when the reporting verb is in the past tense.<\/span> \u200b<\/p>\n Key Rule:<\/strong><\/p>\n When the reporting verb is in the past tense, the tense of the verb within the inverted commas (direct speech) typically shifts back in time in indirect speech.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n Tense Changes:<\/strong><\/p>\n Simple Present<\/strong> changes to Simple Past<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Direct:<\/em> He said, “I eat an apple.”<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Indirect:<\/em> He said that he ate an apple.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Present Continuous<\/strong> changes to Past Continuous<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Direct:<\/em> She said, “I am reading a book.”<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Indirect:<\/em> She said that she was reading a book.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n Present Perfect<\/strong> changes to Past Perfect<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Direct:<\/em> They said, “We have finished our homework.”<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Indirect:<\/em> They said that they had finished their homework.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n Simple Past<\/strong> changes to Past Perfect<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Direct:<\/em> He said, “I saw the movie.”<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Indirect:<\/em> He said that he had seen the movie.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n Direct:<\/em> She said, “I am going to the market.”<\/span>\u200b\u00a0Indirect:<\/em> She said that she was going to the market.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Direct:<\/em> John said, “I have completed the assignment.”<\/span>\u200b Indirect:<\/em> John said that he had completed the assignment.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Direct:<\/em> They said, “We were playing football.”<\/span>\u200b Indirect:<\/em> They said that they had been playing football.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n Note:<\/strong> If the reporting verb is in the present or future tense, the tense of the verb within the inverted commas does not change.<\/span>\u200b<\/p>\n For a more comprehensive understanding and additional examples, you can refer to the detailed explanations provided in Part 2 of R.K.
