Correct Answer: Initial,


Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.

Initial, on its own, is not a complete thought or expression; it lacks a verb. To make it grammatically correct, it should be initially, which functions as an adverb indicating the beginning of a sequence of events.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: Initially , they lived in a rented apartment.
