Question

Write Character Sketch of Nerissa in the story of The Merchant Of Venice?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Nerissa has a strong sense of humour and is capable of making witty remarks just as she is capable of making wise ones. She fully gets into the spirit of Portia's witty comments on the four suitors who come to Belmont to win her but who go away without venturing to make a choice of the caskets.

Answer 2

Nerissa is the waiting-maid of Portia; but actually she is more of a companion to Portia than a maidservant.She may almost be regarded as another Portia though on a greatly diminished and reduced scale. In her talk and her actions, she is almost an echo of her mistress$.$
