Indirect speech: You asked her why she cried like that.

Indirect speech: I told her to go home and bring my books.

Indirect speech: Our teacher said that honesty is the best policy.

v. The mother said to her son, "May you prosper in life"

Indirect speech: The mother said to her son that he will prosper in life.

Indirect speech simply means reported speech. It's a form of speech that actually reports what someone directly said.

In the direct speeches given, we see that each statement made used inverted commas. But when converting them to indirect speech, the inverted commas are removed.
