Indirect Speech – Indirect speech involves reporting what someone else has said without quoting their exact words, often requiring changes in tense, pronouns, and time expressions.
Tense Change – In indirect speech, the present continuous tense (e.g., 'I am going') changes to the past continuous tense (e.g., 'she was going').
