Indirect speech
He said, ‘If I had a hundred thousand dollars, I would buy a house.’
to change this into a indirect speech would be:
He said if he had a hundred thousand dollars, he would buy a house.
Is this sentence correct?
also,
He said, ‘If I win his match, I will marry.’
into:
He said if he won, he would marry.
Is this correct too?
Thank you.
