Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.

The reason for the error is the incorrect use of "myself". In this context, the pronoun should be "I" because it is the subject of the sentence.

"I" is a personal pronoun. It is used when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence, meaning it is the one performing the action whereas "myself" is a reflexive or intensive pronoun. It is used to reflect the action, back onto the subject or to emphasise the identity of the subject.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Rustam and I saw the picture."
