    the easiest way to know how to make direct speech into indirect speech is to imagine that someone has told you something and you need to tell someone else what they said

    for example, your mum might say to you 'go and tidy your room'. you might say to your friend 'she told me to go and tidy my room' <<< the part inbetween the ''s is the indirect speech
