I think it was the daughter that was drunk. Forget it Stella,some mothers still beat their adult children. I know of a soldier who beats his daughter(a friend) till she got married. She used to tell me he did to all her siblings including the elder ones till they all left his house finally. They dare not misbehave!
On a second thought,the mother was drunk cos if it were to be the daughter,the sentence would have been ' A mother beat her daughter because she got drunk'
The mother was drunk. "A mother beat her daughter because she was drunk" this sentence is reporting a to third party. A mother beat her daughter Why did the mother beat her daughter? Because she (the mother)was drunk.
To break the sentence into subject and predicate, the mother is the subject of the sentence, the she refers to the mother. So the mother is the drunk one. #waiting for my accolade
The mother was drunk,coz if it were to b the daughter she would not have allowed herself to b beaten,she would fight back and the statement would be'The daughter fought with her mother....... Lol
The drunk in the content is neither the mother nor the daughter, this is is because the sentencial clause modifies an object of beating which in turn explains the reality of the issue which means nobody was drunk yet somebody was beaten. Here the prolumial subject becomes unlimitedly defined to explain in details what could have led to the beating.
