Choose the correct form of the word to complete the sentence given below:

Although Brij_____ in France for five years now, he doesn't speak French well.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

The phrase 'for five years now' indicates an action beginning in the past and continuing to the present, which requires the present perfect: 'has lived'. Past tenses ('was living', 'had lived') and the simple present ('lives') do not pair with 'for ... now'.
