I don't know if the colleague is a man or woman. How can I change the following direct speech into a reported speech? The colleague said if the meeting was cancelled HE? or THE COLLEAGUE? could leave earlier. He or the colleague, which is correct? Thank you for your answers. ------------------- Edited by lucile83 on 31-10-2011 22:21 Re: Pronoun/reported speech from chrislondon, posted on 31-10-2011 at 20:17:11 (D | E) Hi, I would put 'he/she'.
