The rewritten sentences are he said he had slept when Mary called him, Anna complained her dog had been sick, and the teacher said I was always late.

What is the difference between direct and indirect speech?

In the direct speech, the words of another person are reported using quotations. On the other hand, in indirect speech, the information is reported without quotations and due to this some words including the verb are modified. Here is an example:

  • Mary said "I don't like soda" = Mary said she did not like soda.

How to report the sentences?

Based on the above the reported sentences are:

  • He said he had slept when Mary called him.
  • Anna complained her dog had been sick.
  • The teacher said I was always late.
  • The children screamed they had eaten ice cream.
  • She said she would not step into her house if the cat was still there.
