Hello native English speakers. It's very kind of you to help me.
1. Harriet's husband is unmercifully critical of her.
2. Harriet's husband criticizes her unmercifully.
Question:
Which is grammatically correct?
Do both have the same meaning?
Which is better?
What is the difference between two.
From those two sentences above, I deduce these two noun phrasees:
① Harriet's husband unmerciful criticizing of her.
or,
② Harriet's husband unmerciful criticism of her.
Which is correct noun phrase?

The second one sounds more natural but both are technically correct!
