Indirect speech is also known as reported speech. We use it to report on what someone has said, much like direct speech, but not as a direct quote. let’s take one of the examples and turn it into an indirect statement
- Direct: The man: ‘If you give me all your money, no one will get hurt!’
- Indirect: The man said that if we gave him all our money, no one would get hurt.
With that in mind let's try to use the prompt you gave me
- Direct: "why are you two boys late? "Asked the teacher.
- Indirect: 'The teacher asked why those two boys were late.'
So, your answer is ''the teacher asked why those two boys were late.''
