Question

Tap the sentence that uses reported speech correctly.
Direct speech: Amal said to Jerry and Gauri, ‘You should go to the fair.’

• A. Amal told Jerry and Gauri that you should go to the fair.
• B. Amal told Jerry and Gauri that they should go to the fair.
• C. Amal told Jerry and Gauri that she should go to the fair.
• D. Amal told Jerry and Gauri that he should go to the fair.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Amal told Jerry and Gauri that they should go to the fair.

‘Amal told Jerry and Gauri that they should go to the fair.’ is the correct sentence. The pronoun ‘you’ in direct speech changes to ‘they’ because the speaker ‘Amal’ is referring to two people, Jerry and Gauri.
