streperous(adj.)
"noisy, harsh-sounding," 1630s, from Medieval Latin streperus, from Latin strepere "make a noise," a word of uncertain connections, but de Vaan compares Old Norse þrefa "quarrel," þrapt "gossip;" Old English þræft "quarrel."
Alternative adjective strepitous "noisy, accompanied by great noise" is by 1680s; OED says it is "Now used chiefly in musical criticism." Browning used strepitant "noisy" (1855). A 1772 translation tried streperosity "high-sounding language" for the matchless Spanish in con el estrepitoso sonido.
