No, minor verbal attacks are not generally considered abusive. Try to get into couple's therapy. If you have grown children, maybe they could help you talk about professional help.
Yes. Her spouse and her newborn accompanied her on the expedition. Her spouse was sometimes abusive to her.
they will cringe, sort of, when around their spouse and be very timid when doing something so as not to anger him/her.
Get rid of the spouse, or move away...

Not if you are still married.

They do not want the relationship to end. Avoiding the situation for them keeps them in the relationship.
Swear words don't define an "abusive" relationship entirely. Ask yourself these questions: Have you ever raised your voice to your spouse? Have you ever raised your hand (as if to hit) to your spouse? Have you ever made threats (real or just words like, "I'm going to kill you!") to your spouse? Have you ever thrown objects at or near your spouse? Do you drink or use drugs that may cause emotions to run high or you to become agitated easily? If you have children, have they ever become involved in a fight? If you can answer 'Yes' to even one of these questions, your actions may deemed abusive even if you've kept the foul laungae to a minimum. Sounds like some counseling may be in order to preserve this relationship.
If you were in an abusive relationship, there are places that will help you do that so your spouse will not know. Look at your local justice center.
You get a divorce and leave the house, before it is to late !
In my experience an abusive woman will increase the level of abuse in the relationship as long as the submissive husband tolerates it or allows it to go on. In my own case, I was conditioned to fear my wife and to accept all punishments. An abuser requires a spouse who is weak and submissive and takes the abuse.
Whether you were married; living together then it is wise to privately write down on a piece of paper the reasons you want to break up and then in another column write down the good things about your spouse. Put the paper away for a week or two and reread it to be sure you are making a wise move and not making a big mistake. If you find your spouse to be abusive in any way or controlling; antisocial, etc., then it is time to sit down with your spouse and be honest in asking for a divorce. If your spouse is physically abusive then you will have to give your spouse this information with a male family member present (not another male friend because it would make matter worse.) If your spouse is not abusive in any way then at least try marriage counseling and give the marriage a chance. Sometimes the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence.
