  6. #TodayILearned #TIL the female equivalent of a #rascal in the 1500s was a #ramp.

    Ramp - "coarse, frolicsome girl or woman," mid-15c., rampe, "a virago, shrew," perhaps from early senses of ramp via the notion of "rear up on the hind legs to attack," hence, of persons, "to attack like a rampant animal." Johnson's Dictionary (1755) has romp: "a rude, awkward, boisterous, untaught girl."
