Answer 1

We were at a disadvantage in that we weren't too familiar with the language the others were using.

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

• The correct preposition is "in".
• A preposition is a word that is used before a noun, pronoun, or adverb.
• It is used to show location, time, introduction to an object, or the direction of something.
• Prepositions show a relationship between words and without a preposition, the sentence would not make any sense.
