I want to know what the word "montashir" means - I've only heard it said and do not know the spelling. I believe it is Arabic. Any ideas?

Please provide the context in which you heard this word - as much context as you can provide (and why, of all the other words that were said, this is the one that concerns you). Otherwise, the word, like any other word, is just an empty sound.
