they burn calories a lot while running around the battlefield | In the English language, the word shrew is also used to describe a woman with a violent, scolding, selfish or nagging temperament, as in Shakespeare's play The Taming of the Shrew. The animals were believed historically to behave aggressively and with cruelty, and to have a poisonous bite; the term "shrew" was then applied to a person thought to have a similar disposition.
Paradoxically, the word shrew is also used to connote a nurturing and endearing emotion towards a spouse. Generally in parallel spirit to the small and cute characteristics that a shrew and evocative spouse may share.
Shrew was one of the names originally proposed for the British fighter airplane which finally became known as the Spitfire and played a key role in the Second World War.
