The character I choose for Act V is Dull.  Honestly, I did not understand any of the scenes in this act, but Sparknotes really helped me understand this part.  We see that I think Holfernes and Costard are sort of bickering back and fourth in Latin, and Dull just sits in the background because he doesn't understand, and even says he doesn't understand.  If I was in Dull's place, I would just feel so left out.  It would suck to have everyone be so well educated and be left out.  I feel really bad for him that they make fun of him.

 

I'm not really sure on the idea of truth and lies throughout the play.  But I understand what the play implies about the relationship between truth and love; I think it means you have to stay true to be in love.  Like in the end of the play the ladies want they to prove their love to them by waiting a year, or writing more poems or whatever. It seems that love and truth go hand in hand, but you have to prove yourself.  Truth and language are also well defined because we see people being witty and taking the literal meaning of each word. 

 

I think this play applies to human life, in several ways.  One way is how lazy we've become.  Like language, we seem to be very lazy and not creative in our sentences. We see all the vocab they used back then and we don't even know what have those words are.  Also, we've seem to become lazy with courting people too.  Back then these guys are waiting years to be with their woman and making poems and what not. Now women are lucky if guys hold the door open for them haha.
