(Ignore errors of punctuation, if any). The government has hardly taken some measures to address inflation, but experts believe these steps will have minimal impact in the long run.Solution

The correct phrase should be "has taken some measures." The correct sentence should be: "The government has taken some measures to address inflation, but experts believe these steps will have minimal impact in the long run."
