He told that I am a good man(wrong). But said can be used without an object. He said that I am a good man(correct). I said her that we have to go there.When you say something, you're normally just making a statement. When you tell something, you're usually either informing someone of something they don't know ("He's not here today," she told me.) or making a command. ("Go get the bucket," he told me.)
