Feedback

Backshift changes I to he and am to was.

Use 'that' and backshift the present tense to past: live -> lived.

Commands use infinitive with 'to' after reporting verb.

Modal can changes can to could in backshifting.

We -> they; will -> would.

Tomorrow -> the next day; will -> would.

Indirect questions keep word order normal; tense backshifts.

Yes/no questions are reported with if/whether.

Say does not take an indirect object; tell does.

Future in the past uses would.
