Indirect Statement help (English to Latin)?
As if figuring out indirect statements weren't hard enough, I have to write my own.
PLEASE tell me what I'm doing wrong, I know these barely even resemble a sentence....
1. Dustin was told that Owens had been helped by Juno.
Dustin dixit Owens invit ab Juno.
2. He was told by plebeians where his enemy was hiding.
Dustin Dixit ab plebs ubi eius inmicus condit.
Also, if you just happen to know a good website for learning indirect statements, please post it. It's utterly unnecessary for the points, of course.

1. dixit should be passive, Owens accusative, and "iutum esse" at the end of the sentence.
2. This is an indirect question so it requires the subjunctive of "condit". dixit should be passive.
