Answer:

Can you <u>bring</u> a wrench when you come over Mr. Tyler asked Jackson? We'll need it to fix the leaky pipe in the kitchen.

Explanation:

Word choice plays a crucial role in conveying the meaning of the sentence as per the mood and image created in the text. The given sentence contains a 'verb' error as it wrongly employs the verb 'take' with 'wrench.'

The context of the sentence gives a hint for appropriate word choice to be used.
