Termagant Overbearing Tur Muh Guhnt Noun Quarrelsome Woman.  French Tervagant

A quarrelsome or overbearing woman. 

[From Old French Tervagant. The word comes from the name of an imaginary deity that Christians in medieval Europe erroneously believed was worshiped by Muslims. It was represented in morality plays as a violent, overbearing personage. Over time the term became generalized to apply to any brawling person, and eventually only to women.]
