A
She request to sit down.
B
She requested me to sit down.
C
She requested me sitting down.
D
Her request was to sit down.
উত্তরের বিবরণ
Correct Answer: খ) She requested me to sit down.
-
মূল বাক্য: She said, "Please sit down."
-
এটি একটি imperative sentence।
-
Reported speech-এ request + object + to + verb ফর্ম ব্যবহার হয়।
-
Please সরাসরি বাক্যে থাকে না।
-
Object me (যাকে বলা হচ্ছে) উল্লেখ করা হয়।
-
সুতরাং সঠিক reported speech: She requested me to sit down.
Other options:
-
ক) She requested to sit down. → এখানে object (me) অনুপস্থিত।
-
গ) She requested me sitting down. → grammatically ভুল; সঠিকভাবে হবে to sit down।
-
ঘ) Her request was to sit down. → অর্থ সঠিক হলেও indirect speech নয়, sentence structure পরিবর্তিত হয়েছে।

C
He is taller than any other boy in the class.
D
