  4. He said that I was writing a letter.

Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: He told me that he was writing a letter.

Explanation: āœ… Correct Answer: A) He told me that he was writing a letter. šŸ“š Explanation: In reported speech, the reporting verb 'said to' changes to 'told' followed by the object. The first person pronoun 'I' changes to 'he' to match the subject of the reporting verb, and the present continuous 'am writing' shifts to the past continuous 'was writing'. Option C is incorrect because 'told' should not be followed by 'to'.
