Question: Change narration: “Diana said to me, ‘Let me do my work.’”
  • A. Diana asked me to let she do her work.
  • B. Diana ordered me to let him do his work.
  • C. Diana proposed me to let done her work.
  • D. None of these
Correct Answer: D. None of these
Explanation: 🔍 What the Grammar Rules Say

When “let me” appears in direct speech, in indirect speech it’s common to use reporting verbs like asked, requested, or offered.

The structure becomes: **reporting-verb + me/her + to + infinitive (do, do her work, etc.).

Commands and requests (which “Let me do my work” is more like a request) are reported with verbs like ask / request / tell / order. The choice depends on tone: “order” is stronger, “request”/“ask” is more polite.

Pronoun changes are needed: “me” becomes “her.” Also, the direct infinitive “do my work” becomes “to do her work.”

✅ Applying That to This MCQ

Putting those rules together:

“Diana said to me, ‘Let me do my work.’”

In indirect speech, since it’s a request using “let me,” we use a reporting verb like requested or asked.

Adjust pronouns: “me” becomes “her.”

The infinitive structure “to do her work” matches the rules.

Thus the correct narration is:

“Diana requested me to let her do her work.”
