Answer» Answer: “He asked me who I was and what I WANTED” is indirect speech of the given sentence. Explanation: When a sentence in direct speech is converted to indirect speech, there are general rules to it which are as under: a) Question mark or exclamation sign, ETC. are removed from the END of the sentence. b) ‘that’ is used. c) The 'Tense' is changed as when a person directly says something, he will use present tense while when a person DESCRIBES what another person says, past tense is to be used. d) Pronoun changes.
