AThe lady told me that it was nice of me to have come

BThe lady told me that it was very nice that I had come

CThe lady told me that it was nice to had come

DThe lady told me that it was nice that I have come

Answer:

A. The lady told me that it was nice of me to have come

Read Explanation:

  • Direct Speech: "It is nice to you to have come."

  • Indirect Speech: The pronoun "you" changes to "me" in the indirect form, and "it is" changes to "it was" to reflect the past tense. ("you" എന്ന സർവ്വനാമം indirect രൂപത്തിൽ "me" ആയി മാറുന്നു, "it is" എന്നത് ഭൂതകാലത്തെ പ്രതിഫലിപ്പിക്കുന്നതിനായി "it was" ആയി മാറുന്നു).

  • The phrase "to have come" remains unchanged, but "nice to you" changes to "nice of me" to correctly express the meaning. ("to have come" എന്ന പ്രയോഗം മാറ്റമില്ലാതെ തുടരുന്നു, എന്നാൽ അർത്ഥം ശരിയായി പ്രകടിപ്പിക്കാൻ"nice to you" എന്നത് "nice of me" എന്നാക്കി മാറ്റുന്നു).
