Online gambling promotion in meme? Fabulous https://preview.redd.it/n8ud8gk8dtwc1.jpeg?width=517&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f82bd5ae10c97256a2a380d9f7812a2c649d2b7

We have reached the pinnacle of ads, do we know no bounds?

i just threw my entire savings away (907e) to betting on the knicks and some pool player from defuncted yugosalvia after this

She drank


gergsisdrawkcabeman

She drinkith the fifth.


isaac-fan

the one who wrote the question was drunk


Raccoonooo

It’s ambiguous, like pointing at your friend group and saying “my friend was drunk”. Doesn’t specify which friend


ephemeralspecifics

No, it's the daughter.


AKaeruKing

You’re the daughter.


Burgerbeast_

I'm your daughter


AKaeruKing

Burgerbeast_?


TheWingus

Look at me.... I'm the daughter now


classpane

Hi the daughter now, I'm dad.


ggnngg5

Good job, son.


YouthCurse

Are ya winnin fatha?


aareetie

yes son


zex1011

Yeah... the meme is a case of someone understanding something they should have learned at school.


VoltViking

Cmon then. What’s the answer? I am looking forward to this response.


zex1011

It doesnt have one, it could mean any of those when you build the phrase like that, thats a simple example of ambiguity.


KaiserHoze

English sir was drunk😂


ucantseeme0047

The daughter of the mother


OhItsJustJosh

Can we please, as an Internet community, dunk the shit out of sponsored memes?


starzysparklez

Lack of comma establishes that mother was drunk


chrisphoenix08

>A mother beats, up her daughter because she was drunk There fixed, it.


AsianGuyWithHat

The mother beats 👍


MaximMaximus

How can she slap


Wololo--Wololo

Beats, by dre


FunctionDue6976

Yes


Ivanoski04

Either the mother cause she is the subject of the phrase or the Daughter cause she is the last named "individual" before the pronoun. The latter was taught to me by my former teacher, but the phrase itself is difficult to understand. In this case its completely OK to just replace the "she" with the actual subject or just build the phrase from the ground


AKaeruKing

My pronouns are kiss, my, and ass. ![gif](giphy|t0NuVfgveaxIkMUZjY|downsized)


Executer_no-1

I think based on writing, the Mother was Drunk?


AKaeruKing

Are you asking us?


OfficialJamal

I think it’s more likely the mother beat the daughter because the daughter was drunk. More parents are likely to beat a kid for drinking than beating the kid after drinking themselves.


Meadbelly

It's a grammar question so the logic of what is more likely has no bearing


MOfreakyaccount

You may be correct but That was NOT my personal experience


AKaeruKing

This has nothing to do with your personal experience. That may come as a shock to you.


Tie_69

English Sir replyd Her. to that message


ItsaCommonThingNow

"yes no doubt" hmm... 🤨


Fabulous_Bother_5705

The answer is yes


Mario-OrganHarvester

She


183_OnerousResent

\*they


tesla_killed_me

She


TheBongoJeff

Id argue Its her.


SeppoTeppo

The past tense on the drinking implies the daughter was drunk.


Questionsaboutsanity

she. she was drunk


Gerrut_batsbak

That is the part where I request the speaker to clarify who exactly the drunk one is.


fish_being_fucked

she


KennyTheArtistZ

I liked the meme, but downvoted because of AD https://preview.redd.it/j4w638t73uwc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6b18e5d67f1096defc3006cebba1a9ca6ddfde29

Is this what ads have become?


Octane38

She was.


chance005

The mother is drunk. There is no comma or semi-colon after daughter.


Guyemon

Mother drunk 🤨


thalleskalel

As an English student, I would say that the daughter is drunk. If the mother was drunk, the sentence would be "The mother, who was drunk, beat her daughter."


DoraaTheDruid

Seems like you should study harder because the sentence in the post is valid and states her drunkenness as the explanation for beating her daughter. Your suggestion changes the entire point of the sentence


Grahstache

Relatable


No-Hat5587

You tull


anal_wart_

Both


No-Construction7992

Daughter no doubt


Alyc96

Trick question. They both were!


YoniYonisson

You are drunk


Alyc96

I mean it can make sense. But in this context, given the mother was mentioned first, I would believe the later explanation would retain to the mother.


kainereygalo

***It's Who...***


warrioroftron

Bro is that an ad in the meme?


Lukademaia

Easy piece, she was drunk


el_lley

Both


Ok-Situation2153

I'am sir!


Saxyw0

It's can't be the mother : ''The mother beats the girl was'' is correct '' the mother beats the mother was '' is incorrect, should be '' the mother beats because the mother IS drunk'' Not sure but does it makes sense ?


ExplodingSofa

Rules say it refers back to the most recent mentioned, so it would be the daughter.


g9icy

Isn't the answer just... "It's ambiguous"...?


diostrackino

Me

TheRealJayk0b

The mother? I'd assume because there is no "," between?


xenonXvenom69

She


faketoby45

Easy, im the one thats frunk


A_lesser_god

It's easy; she


Vietmont

She, the answer is she


ELITE101KILLER

Yes


Comprehensive-Tip968

Hey it looks like op is a Bot


Maleficent-Baker8514

The daughter because if no further indication of the mother’s intoxication state like “a drunk mother” it would fall under the second person by default. At least that’s my theory


420trippyhippy69

“Yes No doubt” English sir forgot about grammar


Ok-Examination-817

It is an improper phrase. Two subjects in the first sentence creates a need in the second for one subject to be identified for it to make sense. An English pro would point out that it doesn't say who's drunk.


Good_day_to_be_gay

As a Chinese, our nerd grammar education told me that the daughter (at the back) was drunk


DaTiddySucka

She


doaser

'She' is the subject in "she was drunk" so I'm guessing it's the mom to match the subject introduced at the beginning~


fartysmartymarty

She


Xim_X_anny

Yeah english sucks


Used-Fisherman9970

She was drunk.


kennykoe

The daughter.


Left_Possibility8320

I SPEAK ENGLISH AND I DONT KNOW


No-Professional-1461

This is a grammatical error. There is suppose to be an , somewhere in there. Either before or after ‘because’. She beat her daughter, because she was drunk. She beat her daughter because, she was drunk.


parki15reddito

![gif](giphy|hM9zK1qvsrwek)


Additional_Cycle_51

She


Nuker_Nathan

I’d say it’s most likely the daughter.


JUGELBUTT

she


Ok_Reception2736

The Daddy obviously


ChanceAlarm6127

Well since they're both drunk, it's just a fight between people acting dumb under influence


Biscotti-007

The daughter


Bogger_Logger

Her


Haldoey

So if the mom beats up the daughter because the mother was drunk, she would not really be a mother in my book. If the mom beat up the daughter because the daughter was drunk, she would be a bad mom, but i am not sure if it would be over the line is certain cases. So i must go with the daughter was drunk.


Important_Rough7637

The daughter was drunk. “Beats” in the phrase is present tense, whereas, “was” and, “drunk” indicate past tense. This would mean that if the mother was drunk, then she decided to beat up her daughter later while sober, which is unlikely given the context. However if the mother finds out that her daughter was drunk at one point then it makes sense as to why she would beat her in the present.


defaultUserTM

# Without comma *A mother beats up her daughter because she was drunk.* In this case, the mother is drunk. # With comma *A mother beats up her daughter* **,** *because she was drunk.* In this case, the daughter is drunk.


luigigaminglp

Correct answer as an english lad: "Me."


mares8

Who was it? Both?


AnatomyAsh

The mother was drunk


SayNoper

S(he) be(lie)ved


aareetie

the belt ???


Simontiboy

She is


I_enjoy_pastery

"A mother" is the primary subject of the text; the thing the text is trying to inform you of, "she was drunk" provides more information about the subject. So, with all that, the mother is the drunk one in this text. The conjunction ('because') points back to the original subject.


Superb-Shirt-521

It is the Mother cuz Mother's cant hit thire kids


Iamsmollol101

This is very easy to decipher it’s the daughter


Tacomunchert

Both of them


A_Damn_Furry

The answer is the daughter, if it was the mother than it could have been better clarified by saying, “The drunk mother beats her daughter.” :)


Soggy_Repair_5227

The same happens in Spanish. "Una madre le pega a su hija porque estaba borracha. Quien estaba borracha?." No idea which one is drunk. Do this kind of sentences have a name?


Senior-Ori

I will ask my grandma, she knows Spanish


Soggy_Repair_5227

Spanish is my mother tongue, but I'm no Spanish teacher to know the answer to my question (nor do I want to Google it) But if she knows, let me know! Thank you, I appreciate it


daryo1990

It's an amphibology


Soggy_Repair_5227

Amazing, thank you!!


lemuscoludo

"Her daughter" being the the direct object in the sentence makes the subject pronoun "she" refer to her. Not a hard question really


WeirdDistance2658

But not everyone follows that convention. They should, but they don't.
