Answer:
He suggested that they/we should go.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the exact words used by a speaker are reproduced, it is called direct speech. When the meaning of a speech is conveyed in the reporter's word, it is called Indirect speech.
General Rules (Applied in each sentence)
- While changing direct into indirect speech, inverted comma should be removed.
- If reporting verb is in present or future tense, tense of reported verb isn't changed
For eg:
John says," I go home".
= John says that he goes home
- If reporting verb is in past tense, tense of reported speech is changed as follows:
Simple present -----> simple past
Present continuous ---> past continuous
Present perfect -----> past perfect
Present perfect continuous--> past perfect
continuous
Simple past --->past perfect
Past continuous--> past perfect continuous
Example:
Sophia said, " I went home".
= Sophia said that she had gone home.
- Pronouns of reported speech are also changed according to noun or pronoun of reporting verb.
Example:
Olivia said to me, " You speak English"
= Olivia told me that I spoke English.
Note: Third person of reported speech is never changed.
Example:
Anna said to you , " I lost my pen".
= Anna said to you that she had lost her pen.
If 'we' is used in reported speech, instead of human beings or mankind, at that time 'we' is not changed.
