The American Dialect Society chooses a Word of the Year every year. https://manifold.markets/ButtocksCocktoasten/will-the-american-dialect-societys?r=S2V2aW5CdXJrZQ

asks what if "Rationalussy" is the Word of the Year, but not a runner-up, which leaves open the door for the American Dialect Society to do the funniest thing of all time and nominate "Rationalussy" as a runner up.

This question fixes this issue by resolving YES if a press release or other voting document mentions that "Rationalussy" was in the top 5 in votes, but not the winner, for "Word of the Year" in 2023. If "Rationalussy" is the word of the year this will resolve NO.
