Answer:

Omit all inverted commas or quotation marks. End the sentence with a full stop. When we report something usin the exact words of the speaker, we use direct speech. When we report something in our own words, we use indirect speech.

Direct speech: The boy said, ‘I’m happy with my results.’

Indirect speech: The boy said that he was happy with his results.

If the verb inside the inverted commas/quotation marks is in the present tense, change it into the corresponding past tense. If it is in the simple past tense, change it into the past perfect tense.

Direct speech: The girl said, ‘I like singing.’

Indirect speech: The girl said that she liked singing.
