2. Maybe she meant refutate
which is the Real American way of conjugating the verb to refute

I refutate
you refutate
he/she/it refutates...

4. There's "repudiate", from Latin
It was originally repudere, and meant something like "to shame back".

The abstract noun would have been repudiatio.

--d!
Latin HotLine: Dial Et-Cum-Spiri-2-2-0

7. She's doing it to piss us off. And it's a pretty cool word.
I like "refudiate". Carries a sense of "repudiate" and "refute".

11. Look at the typo in the OP's title itself
"d" and "t" aren't right next to each other. Typos happen. Maybe she was halfway thinking "refute" and her fingers started typing that; I do that all the time.
