word esquivalience which it defines as meaning the willful avoidance of one s official responsibilities this is a fictitious entry intended to protect the copyright of the publication the entry was invented by christine lindberg one of the editors of the noad 3 with the publication of the second edition a rumor circulated that the dictionary contained a fictitious entry in the letter e new yorker contributing editor henry alford combed the section and discussed several unusual entries he found with a group of american lexicographers most found esquivalience to be the most likely candidate and when alford approached noad editor in chief erin mckean she confirmed it was a fake entry which had been present since the first edition in order to protect the copyright of the cd rom edition of the word she said its inherent fakeitude is fairly obvious 4 5 the fake entry apparently ensnared dictionary com which included an entry for it that has since been removed which it attributed to webster s new millennium dictionary both of which are owned by the private company lexico 4 possibly due to its licensing of oxford dictionaries google dictionary included the word
