Once you’ve got the solution, I put the 4th letter repeated as the 5th, which was wrong but accepted as a guess.
However it is not spelled like that in the Oxford English Dictionary which is what it says it uses for the NY times version, where it’s a 4 letter word.
It says it’s curated by humans - anyone found an error before?

Is today’s word an English word ?

No, it's not... But it's used regularly in the US as though it is...

Ok makes sense. I got it in 3 but totally through a random guess. Maybe something in my subconscious has heard it before….
