Mother said to me, “Enjoy your vacation with your friends.”
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct indirect form of the given sentence is:
Mother told me to enjoy my vacation with my friends.
The other options are incorrect:
- Mother asked me to enjoyed my vacation with my friends. This is incorrect because the verb "enjoyed" is in the past tense, but the command is in the present tense.
- Mother told me that you should enjoy your vacation with your friends. This is incorrect because the pronoun "you" is used to refer to the listener, but the speaker is the one who is going on vacation.
- Mother told me that I will enjoy my vacation with my friends. This is incorrect because the speaker is not predicting the future, but rather giving a command.
