"POV: Your mum is a grammarian. She's always correcting either my grammar or my texts," she captioned the post.
The WhatsApp chat confirmed the mother's dedication to proper English usage, as she constantly pointed out grammar, punctuation, and syntax errors.
In one particular conversation, the daughter mentioned that she texted to "check up" on her mother, causing an immediate correction.
Her mother explained that the correct phrase was "check on you," emphasising that "up" was unnecessary.
"Check on you not check up on you. There is no 'up'. Just take note. Yes, you can check up somebody. I went to check him up. Up and on don't go together. Good night and have sweet dreams," the mother wrote.
