Here is a dialogue for you to report: Peter: Could I turn on the
radio? Kate: Of course, please do./ Well, I 'd rather you didn't
if you don't mind. Since what Peter said is a request, the verb
could be ask. I am confused by the way to report the sentence in
subjunctive mood. Peter asked if he could turn on the radio. -
