CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD quarrel, argue, wrangle, dispute, bicker ■ Quarrel is used of people having an angry argument (he married her for her money, so now they're always quarrelling ). One may also dispassionately quarrel with something in the sense of disagreeing with or objecting to it (there was nothing in this document with which he could quarrel ). ■ Arguing involves two people staunchly, possibly also acrimoniously, defending two different and incompatible points of view (he and Martin used to argue for hours about the paranormal ). ■ Wrangle suggests a long, complex, and sometimes intense debate or argument, often a legal or political one (the party is facing internal wrangling and a cash crisis | after considerable wrangling a compromise was reached ). ■ People who dispute are expected to show more reasoned argument than if they are merely quarrelling. Dispute is mainly used of denying or arguing against a specified view, and the matter of contention is typically a direct object (people who dispute the official interpretation of their rights ). ■ Bicker represents an argument as childish, on account of either the logic employed or the triviality of the issue disputed (those who had fought together for the overthrow of Charles I now bickered amongst themselves | there was no point in bickering over trifles ).These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.
