Adity asked me, "How is your mother?"
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct indirect form of the given sentence is:
Adity asked me how my mother was.
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
- Adity asked me how was my mother. The verb "was" should be in the present tense, "is".
- Adity asked her how my mother is. The pronoun "her" should be "me", since the question was asked to "me".
- Adity asked how mother was. The article "my" is missing before "mother".
