Explanation

In this scene, Sir Andrew Aguecheek is engaging in a playful dialogue with Sir Toby Belch. Both characters are involved in a jesting conversation where they humorously agree to each other's remarks. Sir Andrew is often portrayed as a foolish and naive character, which is reflected in his responses in this exchange.
