A Correct answer
Explanation

Lash is correctly identified as a verb because it expresses action - to strike forcefully with a whip or flexible object (e.g., 'he lashed the horse', 'rain lashed against the window'). While lash can be a noun (the whip itself), its primary categorization as a verb is correct. Lash is not a pronoun (which replaces a noun), adjective, adverb, or preposition.
