Obviously it's the mother.
"a woman beat her daughter because she was drunk". Drunk qualifies the woman.

This is an adverbial clause of reason which modifies the verb drunk which is the reason for the action.

Therefore the daughter is the drunk one.

really ambiguous!... but if I'm to go by my Nigerian intuitions (because I can already visualize a frustrated mother beating sobriety and common sense into her wayward dam) I would go for the daughter

Lets view this question from this context


If Nigeria govt need N1billion DAILY for the next 365 days to finish a technically won war, how much did Buhari govt spend daily before they technically won the war on Boko Haram?

The word BECAUSE has showed it that it's the daughter that was drunk.

Being drunk doesn't bring the tendency to beat someone, cheap question.

Simple -The daughter was the one drunk.

In the sentence it says, 'beat her daughter because she was drunk' .

"because" serves as a conjunction between "daughter" which is a noun following over with the word "she which is a pronoun all referring to the daughter..

So the person drunk was the daughter.

Lol Modified oh:
Pronoun not adverb! I was virtually drunk myself when I made the post grin Guess its me the mother will beat now.
