In class, we played a game to demonstrate the way they acted in the play. This showed the humorous side to their way of courting their loves and the sort of stilted, exaggerated way of speaking they had. I think that there is humor in the way they speak, since it's so exaggerated. It's also rather funny how they all deceive each other. Overall, the sheer ridiculousness of it makes it funny.
There is also humor in this play because they all vow to keep their oaths but in the end they all break them. The characters are also funny simply because of the way they act. Honestly, its actually kind of funny how they lie all the time. They lie for the sake of lying, which while true to human nature, leads to humorous situations when they get caught in their own lies.
