Select the most appropriate option to change the sentences from Direct Speech to Reported Speech.

Question- The tailor said to him, “Will you have the suit ready by tomorrow evening?”

Correct option is C

The correct option to change the sentence from Direct to Indirect Speech is (c) The tailor asked him if he would have the suit ready by the next evening.

• The direct speech "Will you have the suit ready by tomorrow evening?" is a Yes/No question.
• In Reported Speech, Yes/No questions are introduced with "if" or "whether" instead of "that".
• "Will" changes to "would" (backshifting in tense from future to past future).
• "Tomorrow evening" changes to "the next evening" in indirect speech.

Grammatical Rule Used:

• Yes/No Questions in Reported Speech:
  • Structure: Reporting verb + if/whether + subject + verb (in past form if necessary)
  • "Will" → "Would" in indirect speech.
  • "Tomorrow" → "The next day" or "The next evening".
