Waht

Waht: noun. Although commonly thought to be a typo by word-processing software, they are in fact horribly wrong, and it is due to a simple error in the programming of the earliest word-processor that this is the case. The word was incredibly popular in the 1950's and the 1960's, however due to an error while creating Astrotype, the word was omitted from its dictionary. This had such a tremendous impact, that in fact nobody knows anymore what the word actually meant.
