                  Hadi asked my mother," are you a housewife ?"
                 Hadi asked my mother whether she was a housewife.

2. The question that begin with question words 
    WHAT - WHEN - WHOM - HOW - WHICH - WHERE 
    Kita harus merubah kalimat tanya menjadi kalimat berita.

    Contoh : Putra Asked Adi, "when will you come ?" ( DIRECT SPEECH )
                 Putra Asked Adi when he would come     ( INDIRECT SPEECH )

DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH IN COMMAND

Dalam indirect speech bentuk command (kalimat perintah ) 
kita harus menambahkan TO untuk kalimat positif 
dan NOT TO untuk kaliamat negatif

Contoh : " listen carefully !", the teacher told his students ( DIRECT SPEECH )
                  The teacher told the students to listen carefully ( INDIRECT SPEECH )

Untuk kalimat perintah negatif kita harus menambahkan NOT TO
