- Use capitals and punctuation marks where necessary in the following text.
why are not you going to school said mother to her son he said i am waiting for my friend to come and go to school together
Answer:
“Why are not you going to school?” said mother to her son. He said, “I am waiting for my friend to come and go to school together.”
Short Explain:
Direct question → Indirect question: “said” পরিবর্তে asked ব্যবহার হয়েছে।
প্রশ্ন থাকায় word order change হয়েছে (are not → was not)।
“you” → he (reporting subject অনুযায়ী pronoun change)।
Present continuous → past continuous (am going → was going)।
Reporting verb past হলে tense backshift হয়।
দ্বিতীয় বাক্যে “said” → replied that করা হয়েছে।
“I am waiting” → he was waiting (tense change)।
“to come and go” একইভাবে retained হয়েছে meaning ঠিক রাখতে।
