Reported Commands & Requests exercises online (Typing Practice)
When reporting a negative command like "Don't be late!", we use 'tell/ask + object + not to + infinitive'. The word 'not' comes before 'to', not after it. This set also practises pronoun and demonstrative shifts: I → he/she, my → his/her, this → that, here → there. These changes are essential for accurate reported speech.
