Reported speech

Hi there. I would really appreciate if you could help me to rephrase these sentences of reported speech with reporting verbs:

"what a silly thing to say" she said

"what a nice gift" he said

I suggest:

SHE COMMENTED/REMARKED THAT IT WAS A SILLY THING TO SAY.

HE COMPLIMENTED HER/HIM ON THE NICE GIFT.
