Passive & Reporting
Quick rule
Shift the tense one step back, change pronouns and time/place words, and drop question word order.
He said he'd send the file that evening.
They asked whether we could postpone the call.
She told me to check the figures again.
The email said the deadline had been moved.
Common mistake
✗ She asked me where do I live. → ✓ She asked me where I lived.
Short practice
Report: "I'll call you tomorrow." (said, on Monday about Tuesday) → He said he would call me the next day.
