She said, "I saw the movie yesterday." (Indirect speech)
  1. She said that she saw the movie yesterday.
  2. She said that she has seen the movie yesterday.
  3. She said that she will see the movie the previous day.
  4. She said that she had seen the movie the previous day.
সঠিক উত্তর:
She said that she had seen the movie the previous day.
উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
She said that she had seen the movie the previous day.
ব্যাখ্যা

The correct answer is - ঘ) She said that she had seen the movie the previous day

Direct Speech থেকে  Indirect Speech করার ক্ষেত্রে:
Direct Speech-এ যদি বাক্যটি Simple Past Tense-এ হয় এবং yesterday শব্দ থাকে, তাহলে Indirect Speech-এ তা Past Perfect Tense-এ পরিবর্তিত হয় এবং yesterday এর স্থানে the previous day ব্যবহার করা হয়।
Example:
Direct: She said, "I saw the movie yesterday." 
Indirect: She said that she had seen the movie the previous day

More Example:
Direct: He said, "I came yesterday."
Indirect: He said that he had come the previous day.

Other options
ক) She said that she saw the movie yesterday.
এখানে tense পরিবর্তন হয়নি; past tense "saw" আছে, কিন্তু indirect speech-এ past tense পরিবর্তন হয়ে past perfect হবে। 

খ) She said that she has seen the movie yesterday.
এখানে has seen ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে, কিন্তু direct speech past tense কিন্তু indirect speech-এ past perfect হবে। 

গ) She said that she will see the movie the previous day.
এখানে future tense “will see” ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে, যা ভুল।

• Direct speech এর reporting verb যদি Present tense বা Future tense থাকে,
- তবে reported speech এর verb এর tense পরিবর্তন হয় না।
- কেবল person পরিবর্তিত হয়,
- অর্থাৎ, 1st person (I, we) থাকলে Reporting Verb এর Subject অনুযায়ী পরিবর্তন হয়। 
- 2nd person (you) থাকলে Reporting Verb এর Object অনুযায়ী পরিবর্তন হয়।
- Reported speech এর 3rd person এর কোন পরিবর্তন হয় না।

• Reported speech যদি Interrogative sentence হয় তাহলে reporting verb 'said' বা 'said to' indirect speech এ 'ask', 'demand', 'enquire', 'wonder' বা 'want to know' তে পরিবর্তিত হয়। 
- Reported speech যদি কোন auxiliary verb দ্বারা শুরু হয় তাহলে indirect speech এ if বা whether ব্যবহৃত হয়। 
- Indirect speech এ রূপান্তরিত বাক্য আর Interrogative থাকে না; একারণে এর শেষে প্রশ্ন বোধক চিহ্ন (?) বসবে না।
- এজন্যে Indirect speech এ auxiliary verb টি subject এর পরে বসে। 

Direct: He said, "Will you listen to such a man?
Indirect: He asked them whether they would listen to such a man.

• সুতরাং, The correct direct form of the sentence "Akash exclaimed that it was a beautiful day." is: ঘ) Akash said, "What a beautiful day!"
- In this sentence, Akash is expressing a feeling of admiration or amazement about the day, which aligns with the exclamatory form "What a beautiful day!"

• "It is a beautiful day!" এই বাক্যটি সাধারণ statement
- কিন্তু মূল বাক্যে exclaimed থাকায় direct speech এ একটি exclamatory sentence হওয়া উচিত।
- "What a beautiful day!" exclamatory sentence হিসেবে বক্তার উচ্ছ্বাস/আবেগ বেশি ভালোভাবে প্রকাশ করে.
- সুতরাং যদিও "It is a beautiful day!" গ্রামারগতভাবে সঠিক।
- কিন্তু exclaimed এর প্রকৃত অর্থ প্রকাশ করতে "What a beautiful day!" বেশি উপযুক্ত

- প্রথমে Direct Speech (সরাসরি বক্তৃতা) হিসেবে মূল বাক্যটি ছিল:
- Sayeed said, "I was busy."
- এখন, Indirect Speech-এ এই বাক্যটি রূপান্তর করার সময় কিছু নিয়ম অনুসরণ করতে হয়, যেমন:
- Reporting verb – "said" থাকে যেমন আছে।

- Pronoun (সর্বনাম) – "I" পরিবর্তন হয়ে "he" হবে, কারণ Sayeed বলছে।
- Tense পরিবর্তন – সরাসরি বক্তৃতায় যদি অতীত কাল থাকে, তবে Indirect Speech-এ তা এক ধাপ পেছনে চলে যায়।
- অর্থাৎ, "was" হয়ে "had been" হয়ে যাবে, কারণ এটি অতীতের কথাকে নির্দেশ করছে।

- এটি সঠিক, কারণ এখানে "I" হয়ে "he" এবং "was" হয়ে "had been" হয়েছে।

Imperative sentence কে একাধিকভাবে direct থেকে Indirect করা যায়।
Imperative sentence এর Verb টিকে infinitive এ রূপান্তর করে direct থেকে Indirect করা যায়।
সুতরাং অপশন ‍a সঠিক উত্তর। কারণ এখানে না বোধক থাকার কারণে forbade শব্দটি ব্যবহৃত হয়েছে এবং main verb টিকে infinitive এ রূপান্তরিত হয়েছে।
অপশন b তে reporting verb পরিবর্তন না করা এবং not এর ভুল ব্যবহারের কারণে উত্তর হবে না।
অপশন c ও d তে reporting speech এর পর that বসিয়েছে। তাই এগুলো ভুল।

প্রথমেই  Tell & Say’ verb এর ব্যবহারটা দেখে নেই: 

Use of ’Tell & Say’ verb
- These two verbs are often used while changing the narration. 
- We use say and tell in different ways in reported speech;  Say focuses on the words someone said and tell focuses more on the content or message of what someone said.
- We don’t use an indirect object with say. example: ‘I’m in a hurry,’ he said to me.
-  In other words, when we know to whom narrator is talking to we use tell: He told me that you were a genius. 
- On the other hand, when we don't know to whom narrator is talking we use, say: He said that you were leading from the front.
- মূল কথা হলো, যখন বক্তা কার সাথে কথা বলেছে সুনির্দিষ্ট ভাবে জানা যায় , তখন tell  বসবে, অপরদিকে , যখন জানা যায় না তখন say বসবে। 

প্রদত্ত প্রশ্নে Jerin কার সাথে কথা বলেছে এটি যেহেতু সুনির্দিষ্ট ভাবে জানা যাচ্ছে সুতরাং এখানে, told  বসবে। 

সঠিক বাক্যটি হবে: Jerin told me that you were there.

- Indirect Speech-এ এই বাক্যটি রূপান্তর করতে হলে, Reporting verb হিসাবে "bade" ব্যবহার করাতে হবে,

• Indirect Speech এ পরিবর্তনগুলি:

→ She = She (অপরিবর্তিত থাকবে)

ক) She told that her dear friends good bye. → "told" ব্যবহারের পর "that" এখানে ভুল। "Told" এর পর object আসতে হয়।

সঠিক উত্তর:
He has told me that he will go but I will stay here in Dhaka.
ব্যাখ্যা

সঠিক বাক্যটি হচ্ছে - He has told me that he will go but I will stay here in Dhaka.
মূলত এখানে ভিন্ন ভিন্ন অর্থে সবগুলো বাক্যই শুদ্ধ।

প্রদত্ত বাক্যটি indirect speech এ রয়েছে।
Narration এর নিয়মানুযায়ী, Indirect speech এর Reporting verb - Present বা Future Tense এর হলে Reported Speech এর Verb- যে কোনো Tense এর হতে পারে। আবার নিকটবর্তী বা দূরবর্তী (here, therer, now, then etc.) যে কোনো নির্দেশনা সূচক শব্দ বসাতেও সমস্যা নেই।

• Active voice থেকে passive voice করার নিয়ম:
- Active voice এর object টি passive voice এর subject হয়।
- Tense অনুযায়ী auxiliary verb বসে।
- তারপর মূল verb এর past participle হয়।
- preposition (by, with, at, to, in) বসে।
- Active voice এর subject টি passive voice এর object হয়।

Passive voice-এ perception verbs এর sentence গঠনের নিয়ম:
Active: Subject + verb + object + bare infinitive.
Passive: Object + be + past participle + full infinitive + by + subject.

• Need, bid, dare, see, hear, make, help, feel, let, know, behold, watch প্রভৃতি verb গুলোর পর Active Voice-এ to উহ্য থাকে।
- তবে passive করার সময় তাদের পরে to বসে।
- যখন active sentence এ bare infinitive (to ছাড়া infinitive) থাকে, passive এ সেটি full infinitive (to সহ) হয়ে যায়।

অন্যান্য অপশন ভুল কারণ:

ক) She was heard sing by me.
 → এখানে “to” বাদ দেওয়া হয়েছে।
- Passive voice-এ bare infinitive (sing) আর থাকে না, বরং to + infinitive (to sing) হয়।
- তাই এটি ব্যাকরণগতভাবে ভুল।

খ) She was heard to be sung by me.
→ ভুল, কারণ এখানে to be sung passive infinitive ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে। মূল বাক্যের অর্থ পাল্টে যাচ্ছে।

গ) She was heard sung by me.
 → grammatically ভুল, sung past participle, যা এখানে উপযুক্ত নয়।
- তাছাড়া এটি অর্থগত ভাবে ঠিক হয়নি।

- তাই শূন্যস্থানে "more carefully" সঠিক হবে।
- Complete sentence: I prepare my lesson more carefully than you.

অন্যান্য অপশনগুলির মধ্যে -
ক) carefully
- "Carefully" positive degeree কে বর্ণনা করার জন্য ব্যবহৃত হয়, কিন্তু এখানে তুলনা করার জন্য comparative degree প্রয়োজন। তাই এটি সঠিক নয়।

খ) so carefully
ব্যাখ্যা: "So carefully" এর মানে হল "এত সতর্কভাবে", যা সাধারণত intensifier হিসেবে ব্যবহৃত হয়। এখানে দুটি বিষয়কে তুলনা করতে হবে, এবং so carefully তুলনা নির্দেশ করে না।

গ) most carefully
-  "Most carefully" শব্দটি superlative degree নির্দেশ করে, যা তিন বা তার বেশি বস্তু বা ব্যক্তির মধ্যে তুলনা করতে ব্যবহৃত হয়। এখানে দুইজনের মধ্যে তুলনা করা হচ্ছে, তাই এটি সঠিক নয়।

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) Milk is more nourishing than any other food.
ব্যাখ্যা
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 'Milk is more nourishing than any other food.'
One of the degrees of comparison is the 'comparative degree' that describes the comparison between more than two persons or things.
Option 1 is such an example of the comparative form of an adjective.
In this case, the comparative adjective of 'most nourishing' is 'more nourishing.'
In the case of converting the sentence, it can also be transformed to a comparative degree.
Option 1 is an example of a superlative to comparative transformation.
A comparative degree can be formed as follows: Subject + Verb + Comparative adjective + Than + Any other + Object.
Milk + is + more nourishing + than + any other + food.
Additionally, a superlative degree can be identified with the verb suffix -est or with the prefix most _____.
A comparative degree can be identified with the suffix -er or prefix more ______ than.

ঘ) President was him appointed by them.
শব্দগুলোর ক্রম সম্পূর্ণভাবে বিভ্রান্তিকর এবং grammar ভুল।

Active voice: Who did the sum?

অন্য অপশনগুলো ভুল:

- ভুল tense এবং structure.

ঘ) Who was the work done? 
- অর্থ ও structure—দুটোই ভুল।
-"Who" ব্যবহৃত হয়েছে, কিন্তু passive voice-এ subject “by whom” হওয়া উচিত।
- "by" preposition নেই।
