Question

Choose the option that rectifies the grammatical and/or spelling errors in the given sentence.
In the huge yard, there was a loan pine tree in one corner but no other large plants to speak of.

A.

there was a lone pine tree

B.

In the hudge yard

C.

in one cornar

D.

but not other large plant to spoke of

Correct option is A


✔️ Option (a) there was a lone pine tree is the correct correction.
· Explanation:
· The word loan is incorrectly used; it means lending money. The correct word is lone, meaning solitary or single.
· Grammatical rule used:
· Word usage must match context. "Lone" (adjective) describes the noun "tree" correctly.
· Hindi Explanation: “Loan” का अर्थ है उधार, जबकि “lone” का अर्थ है एकल या अकेला। वाक्य में वृक्ष अकेला है, इसलिए “lone” का प्रयोग सही है।
· Meanings of other options:
· (b) hudge – गलत वर्तनी; सही शब्द “huge”
· (c) cornar – गलत वर्तनी; सही शब्द “corner”
· (d) to spoke of – गलत क्रिया रूप; “to speak of” सही होता
