Question:

Choose the option that best expresses the following sentence in Direct Speech:

My father wished that God might bless me.

Options:

My father said to me, "May God bless you!"

My father asked God, "Bless you!"

My father told me, "May God blesses you!"

My father said, "God blesses you!"

Correct Answer:

My father said to me, "May God bless you!"

Explanation:


The correct option is: My father said to me, "May God bless you!"

This is the most direct and accurate way to convert the indirect speech sentence "My father wished that God might bless me" into direct speech. The direct speech sentence uses the verb "said" to indicate that the father is speaking, and it uses the phrase "May God bless you" to express the father's wish for his child.
