Question

Transform the direct speech into reported speech -Look out! shouted his mother

Answer 1

His mother said him to look out
Как-то так, по-другому не получилось

Answer 2

Reported speech, also known as indirect speech, is used to convey what someone else has said without quoting their exact words. When transforming direct speech into reported speech, it usually involves changing pronouns, verb tenses, and sometimes other elements. In this case, let's transform the direct speech "Look out! shouted his mother" into reported speech.

Direct speech: "Look out! shouted his mother."

Reported speech: His mother shouted at him to look out.

Here are the changes that occurred:

1. The imperative "Look out!" becomes "to look out" in reported speech. 2. The exclamation mark is replaced with a period. 3. The pronoun "his" remains the same because it is not changed in reported speech. 4. The verb "shouted" is changed to "shouted at him" to maintain the meaning in reported speech.
