Narration — Direct से Indirect
Said to→told, टेंस बैकशिफ्ट, today→that day, प्रश्न if/whether, आदेश to-infinitive। SSC CGL/CHSL शैली, GKSchools 2026।
Direct speech उद्धरण में होता है: He said, "I am busy." Indirect उसी बात को बिना उद्धरण के रिपोर्ट करता है: He said that he was busy.
Reporting verb past हो तो अंदर का टेंस एक कदम पीछे जाता है — am→was, have→had, will→would, can→could। सार्वभौम सत्य पर टेंस नहीं बदलता: The sun rises in the east.
SSC जोड़े रटवाता है: today→that day, tomorrow→the next day, yesterday→the previous day, now→then, here→there, this→that, ago→before। said to → told (that के बिना कर्म के साथ)।
नियम
- He said, "I am tired." → He said that he was tired. I/we कर्ता के अनुसार he/she/they।
- He said, "I have done my work." → He said that he had done his work. Present Perfect → Past Perfect.
- She said, "I will go tomorrow." → She said that she would go the next day. will→would; tomorrow→the next day / the following day.
- He said, "I bought this book yesterday." → He said that he had bought that book the previous day.
- He said, "The sun rises in the east." → He said that the sun rises in the east. शाश्वत सत्य — टेंस ज्यों का त्यों।
- Reporting verb present/future हो तो अंदर का टेंस नहीं बदलता: He says, "I am busy." → He says that he is busy.
- said to + कर्म → told + कर्म: He said to me, "You are late." → He told me that I was late. told के बाद that; said to Indirect में प्रायः नहीं रहता।
- Yes/No प्रश्न: if / whether, asked। He said, "Are you coming?" → He asked if I was coming. सहायक क्रिया हटाकर कथन क्रम।
- Wh-प्रश्न: वही wh शब्द, asked। He said, "Where do you live?" → He asked where I lived. do/does/did हटते हैं।
- आदेश: ordered / commanded + to। The teacher said, "Sit down." → The teacher ordered them to sit down.
- विनती: requested / begged + to। He said, "Please help me." → He requested me to help him.
- मनाही: forbade / ordered not to। He said, "Do not waste time." → He forbade me to waste time. या ordered me not to waste time.
- Let us: suggested + that + should। He said, "Let us go home." → He suggested that they should go home.
- Let him: He said, "Let him try." → He suggested that he should try. / said that he might be allowed to try — पहला रूप SSC में अधिक।
- इच्छार्थ (optative): wished / prayed। He said, "May you live long!" → He prayed that I might live long.
- विस्मय: exclaimed with joy / sorrow / surprise + that + very। She said, "What a beautiful flower!" → She exclaimed with joy that it was a very beautiful flower.
- must प्रायः had to: He said, "I must go." → He said that he had to go. सलाह वाले must कभी-कभी must ही रहता है।
- shall I (प्रस्ताव): He said, "Shall I open the window?" → He asked if he should open the window.
- समय शब्द: now→then, ago→before, last night→the previous night, next week→the following week, tonight→that night.
- स्थान: here→there, this place→that place, come→go (यदि दिशा रिपोर्ट के हिसाब से उलटी हो)।
- उद्धरण और प्रश्नचिह्न Indirect में नहीं रहते; पूर्ण विराम लगता है।
- दो वाक्य: He said, "I am ill. I cannot come." → He said that he was ill and that he could not come.
Narration — Direct से Indirect — मुख्य तथ्य (2026)

परीक्षा टिप: पहले वाक्य का प्रकार देखें — कथन, प्रश्न, आदेश, विस्मय — फिर टेंस और समय-शब्द एक साथ बदलें, केवल एक नहीं।
लोग ये भी पूछते हैं
said और told में फर्क?
Direct में said / said to चलता है। Indirect में कर्म हो तो told me/him; बिना कर्म said that। He told that… अशुद्ध है — He said that या He told me that।
The earth is round पर टेंस बदले?
नहीं। वैज्ञानिक/सार्वभौम सत्य पर Present ज्यों का त्यों रहता है।
Please वाले वाक्य?
requested / begged + to-infinitive। Please हटा दें: He requested me to wait.
