hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:

In the place of word hard, ‘hardly’ should be used and after the word young a comma should be used. So, the correct sentence should be,

He was very young, hardly 11 years old.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the word hard cannot be used because of hard means something very strong or tough and it cannot be used to show the human features of a young boy. Hard is an Adjective but hardly is an adverb that correctly demonstrates the qualities that are attributed to the young boy.

In the sentence, the speaker does not seem to be very sure about the age of the boy and that's why hardly is used so it can approximate the age of the boy. The comma is used because the speaker there needs a pause after saying young to guess the age of the boy.
