Answer: Master

Crusoe encounters Friday, a native of the Caribbean, when helping him escape from the cannibals that had imprisoned him. Crusoe had dreamed of acquiring servants, and when he meets Friday, the first word he teaches him is "master." Friday is extremely loyal to Crusoe, and Crusoe learns to appreciate, and even love, Friday. However, the character is also a symbol for the conquered people of the territories dominated by the English empire and a symbol of racial injustice.
