Best Answer

The word shrew has several definitions. 1). A small, fierce animal with a close resemblance to a mouse. Except that a shrew has a longer, more pointed snout, whiskers, is an insectivore, has velvety fur, small eyes and ears, and is highly aggresive. 2) an offensive term for a woman regarded as nagging, quarrelsome, or ill-tempered.
