00 I forgot to add another question concerning to this same topic. Please, can you help me?02br

00 The word 01u01b00now02b02u00 becomes 01u01b00then02b02u00 in the 01b00Reported Speech.02b00 But is it also correct to replace01b01u00 now02u02b00 by 01u01b00at that time02b02u00 or 01b01u00at the time02u02b00?02br
02br
01u00Examples:02u02br
02br
00"I'm going to the movies 01b01u00now02u02b00, the girl told her mother.02br
02br
01b00Reported Speech02b00: The girl told her mother she was going to the movies01u00 01b00then02b02u00 .02br
02br
00Is it also acceptable? (here replacing 01b00now02b00 by ; 01b01u00at that time02u02b00 or 01u01b00at the time02b02u00)02br
