ETYMOLOGY
[angry dispute] mid-14c., querele, “dispute, altercation,” also “ground for complaint,” from Old French querele “matter, concern, business; dispute, controversy” (Modern French querelle) and directly from Latin querella “complaint, accusation; lamentation,” from queri “to complain, lament,” from Proto-Italic *kwese-, of uncertain etymology, perhaps, via the notion of “to sigh,” from a PIE root *kues- “to hiss” (source also of Sanskrit svasiti “to hiss, snort”), which is not very compelling, but no better etymology has been offered.
