Best Answer

Tranio is not a particularly well-developed character, but then his part is relatively minor, so that is just what you expect. He is basically a foil for Lucentio, and is a servant playing at being the master later on. If Shakespeare spent a lot of time rounding out every messenger that came in with one line, the plays would be interminable and incomprehensible.
