Vocabulary to finish reading Oppressor: someone who treats someone else unfairly British Empire: the term for all the countries England controlled during imperialism Mahout: someone who cares for and trains an elephant

Conflict in “Shooting an Elephant” Man vs. Society Man vs. Self Our narrator does not want to shoot the elephant. The Burmese are very entertained by the idea of our narrator shooting the elephant.

Petty: of little real importance, trivial I was sub-divisional police officer, and in an aimless, petty kind of way anti-European feeling was very bitter. - Ms. McAvoy
