quarrel
Angry verbal clash
A quarrel is a heated argument or disagreement, typically between people who know each other: a quarrel between neighbors, a lovers' quarrel.
To quarrel is to argue angrily.
You can also quarrel with something abstract—to quarrel with a decision or interpretation is to take issue with it.
Separately, a quarrel is a short, heavy crossbow bolt.
