此“mom ” 非彼 “mum”








女婿在群组里寄来一张他在工作中的照片。
女儿问   :“ Who r young ple?”
女婿说: “FPPO from mom :)”
“为什么他说 from mom (妈妈)?” 我问老公。
“ mom 是 指 ministry of manpower 啦,妈妈是mum。哈哈哈!”老公回答。
我听了也不禁哈哈大笑!
去网上搜了一下,发现 mom 也是妈妈,MOM才是 ministry of manpower。


It is also an alternative spelling of mom, where it means mother. Mom is more common in American English, while mum is more common in British English.
