Question

what was that Shylock used to bear with patient shrug?why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

No, Shylock did not bear Antonio's insult patiently but he was doing the false action that he bear Antonio's insult patiently. Rather, Shylock was waiting for a chance to take revenge from Antonio for that Antonio insulted or abused him in the Venetian Stock Exchange about his money and money lending practices. And thus, he got a chance to take revenge when Antonio came along with Bassanio to him for asking money for Bassanio, and he played a trick. Therefore, we cannot say that Shylock bear Antonio's insult patiently.
