Select the correct sentence:

  1. A.Although it was raining, we had the picnic.✓ Correct
  2. B.Although it was raining, still we had the picnic.
  3. C.Although it was raining, yet we had the picnic.
  4. D.Although it was raining, even then we had the picnic.

Explanation

When 'although' is used as a subordinating conjunction, the main clause should not contain another conjunction like 'still', 'yet', or 'even then', as this would create a double conjunction error. The correct construction is 'Although + clause, main clause' without any additional contrastive conjunction. Therefore, 'Although it was raining, we had the picnic' is the only grammatically correct sentence.
