Select the correct direct form of the given sentence.
Leena said that his relatives were landing the next day.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct direct form of the given sentence is:OPTION 4 - Leena said, "His relatives are landing tomorrow."
In indirect speech, “the next day” changes to “tomorrow” in direct speech, and “were landing” changes to “are landing” to reflect the original present continuous tense. The pronoun “his” remains unchanged as there is no information suggesting it should be converted to “my.” Therefore, Option (4) correctly represents the direct form of the sentence.
