Answer:

Tybalt is Capulet's nephew. His short-tempered personality provides a foil to the calmer Lord Capulet.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's romantic tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" tells of how two young lovers had to suffer for their love for each other. The ancient feud between the two households of the Montague and the Capulets led to the deaths of the young lovers Romeo and Juliet.

The character of Tybalt is not a major character but he also played an important role in the story. He was the son of Lady Capulet's brother, thus making him a nephew of Capulet and Juliet's cousin. He was a hot headed, short tempered person, easily angered and acting in a rush. Act 3 scene i shows him asking for a duel with Romeo in the streets. His character also serves as a foil for the calm nature and personality of Capulet, Juliet's father.
