Answer:

Betru asked Tedla what he was doing there because he hadn't seen him since June.

Tedla replied that he just came back from his holiday in Nekemte

Betru asked if he enjoyed it and Tedla replied that he loves Ireland and the people in Nekemte were so friendly.

Betra then asked if he went to Shambu and Tedla replied that it was his first trip. He said he could show Betra some pictures tomorrow if he was free.

Betru replied that he would arrange some things tomorrow but he was free tonight.

Tedla suggested he comes to his place and asked what time they should meet.

Betru said he would be there by eight and asked if it was alright?

Explanation:

Direct speech means reporting a speech by repeating the words of the speaker verbatim.

Indirect speech is expressing the words of a speaker without explicitly quoting or repeating the words.

Some simple steps in changing direct speech to indirect speech are:

  • Remove all inverted commas or quotation marks.
  • Finish the sentence with a period.
  • Change the verbs in the inverted commas to the corresponding tense.
