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. 

The correct answer is '4' i.e. there was a lone pine tree .

Key Points

• The word "loan" in the sentence is a spelling error. It should be "lone," which means solitary or single.
• The sentence structure is grammatically correct otherwise, with "In the huge yard" introducing the setting and "there was a lone pine tree in one corner" describing the subject.
• The phrase "but no other large plants to speak of" is also correct and conveys the intended meaning.

Correct sentence: In the huge yard, there was a lone pine tree in one corner but no other large plants to speak of.

Additional Information

• Ensure proper spelling in sentences, as errors can change the meaning entirely. For example, "loan" refers to borrowing, while "lone" means solitary.
• Check for clarity in sentence structure to ensure the meaning is easily understood.
• Always verify the context of the sentence before selecting the correct option.
