Question

Rewrite the following sentence in indirect speech

She said to me, 'Wait here till I return." She ordered me____.

• A. To wait there till she returned
• B. That to wait there till I returned
• C. To wait there till I return
• D. To wait there till she returns

Answer 1

The correct option is A To wait there till she returned

Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words.

In case of order, the pattern for converting direct speech to reported speech is verb + indirect object + to-clause.

The indirect object is the person spoken to. Verbs in case of order can be command, order, warn.

Thus, the sentence would be - She ordered me to wait there till she returned.

Hence, option A is the correct answer.
