Explanation

Brusque refers to behavior or speech that is abrupt, rough, or blunt in manner - it's about style of delivery, not content. While harsh, unparliamentary, and indecent can describe rude speech, brusque specifically captures the 'abrupt and rough in manner' quality without necessarily being offensive or inappropriate.
