Did You Know?
Noun
In Old Italian, the noun "aringo" referred toa public assembly,
the verb aringare meant"to speak in public,"
and the noun "aringa" referred to a public speech.
"Aringa" was borrowed into Middle French as arenge,
and it is from this form that we get our noun "harangue,"
which made its first appearance in English in the 16th century.
Perhaps due to the bombastic or exasperated nature of some public speeches, the term quickly developed an added sense referring to a speech or writing in the style of a rant (though the word rant is not etymologically related).
There is also a verb "harangue," which refers to the act of making such a speech.

(1) A tirade is always an attack; and harangue may be only a long, violent speech,
(2) An harangue is always made to an audience of some size; a tirade can be directed to or at one person only.
