Only asking because there hasn't been nearly enough farce here.....

If we polled 100 priests, how many do you think would know the word?

I'm suggesting it may indeed be an ex-word...

i knew it. nothing in the question said "do not used archaic words"

it should 100% not be a fail

In thy case my counter objection is that it wouldn't score in countdown as it's not in the dictionary they use.
Unless of course it is, in which case I withdraw.

As for this... I looked in the dictionary and in the oxford online dictionary.... couldn't find it. If you can find it in either, you can have it.

but your question did not specify it had to be found in either

instead i gave you three sources where it can be found

Indeed, it has to count in the dictionary (oxford english), where it could not be found.

The question stated it had to get him back into the game on the Countdown show. If it's not in the dictionary, it wouldn't have done this... therefore is wrong
