can you tell me "that" is referring to which noun in the sentence.

The "that" is referring to the semantic organization of European languages. So if I wanted to substitute the "that" out with what it was referring to, it would look like this:

i think between option A and C, A is the better one and more precise in meaning and in option c the word which distorts the original meaning of the sentence.

Hello Solenja,

We hope this finds you well.

To provide a bit more detail, we would like to point out that aside from the meaning error, Option C also features a much more blatant pronoun error - it incorrectly refers to the singular noun "semantic organization" with the plural pronoun "those".

We hope this helps.
All the best!
