The correct answer is "grammar"

Linguist is a person who studies languages, semantics is the science of word and sentence meaning, and arbitrary means that something is subjected to individual will or judgement.

Grammar is the system and structure of language composed by clauses, phrases, and words of any language. It's a linguistic tool that shows us what are the rules of correct sentences. There are various subfields that involve grammar, such as syntax, phonetics, semantics, pragmatics, and morphology.

Most of us learn the rules of our native language unconsciously by observing others, usually during childhood. If we want to learn another language when we grow up we will have to study explicit information about this language. So, we can say that language is the cognitive information underlying language use.

Given that semantics is the subfield of grammar that studies meaning, and linguistics is the study of a language, we can positively say that the name of the set of rules that make language systematic is Grammar. The rules are not arbitrary. We can not place a string of words together without syntax, morphology, semantics, and phonetics because the meaning of these words can be open to interpretation and easily confused.

Can i please get help for both these questions 1. Compare and contrast the conflicts faced by Orwell in “Shooting an Elephant” t

Vesna [10]

I can only answer the 1st question.
Both men in these stories faced peer pressure. They were pressured to go against their own beliefs in order to satisfy society's demands.

“No Witchcraft for Sale.” - In this story, Gideon did not bow down to peer pressure. He kept silent and gave the impression of succumbing to the pressure given to him but doing what he wanted to really do. He gave the wrong root to satisfy the demands of the public. He also signified his displeasure by being more formal to his employers and for keeping his silence.

"“Shooting an Elephant” - In this story, the police man gave in to the pressure of shooting the elephant not because it is a legal thing to do but because of self-preservation. He doesn't want to appear as a fool to the public that detests him. He preferred to be hailed as the one who shot the elephant than be further jeered as the one who did not shoot the elephant.

Both men did what they did to serve their own purpose. Gideon's way was sticking to his values while the police man sacrificed his own values to ensure an acceptable place in the community he lives in.
