Neem tastes / a little bitterly, / but is very useful.
Option 1: a little bitterly
Option 2: Neem tastes
Option 3: but is very useful
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: a little bitterly
Solution : The first option is correct.
The corrected sentence should be: " Neem tastes a little bitter, but is very useful ."
The error is in the use of the adverb bitterly after a little . The correct adjective form to describe the taste of neem is bitter , so the adverb bitterly is unnecessary in this context. The phrase should be a little bitter to convey the intended meaning.
