Osric is a parvenu, a newcomer, having new money but no old manners. He can talk like a courtier for a short while, but his courtly talk is not from his native wit and he can be quickly baffled. Hamlet makes fun of him by suggesting that he should put on his hat, then take it off, then put it on. This can be quite funny in performance if done right, but it is still rather mean to poor old Osric. The scene reinforces our understanding of Hamlet as a snob.

When Hamlet calls Polonius a fishmonger?
If you are asking what he means, then he is referring to Polonius "fishing" for information about Laertes and Hamlet.Answer:Some writers relate Hamlet's reference to Poloneus as a fishmonger to another reference to Ophelia as a fishmonger's daughter. In the slang of the time, fishmonger's often were pimps for their daughters. Polonius used his daughter to get in with the King and the nobility - perhaps Hamlet was referring to this. In other parts of the play Hamlet was trying to shed Ophelia as a companion and insulted her. This reference and allusion could simply be a carryover from those insults.
