It's a legit word. It's the passive form of disprove.

 

[MiuMiu]

yeah I know but find me a dictionary that says it is

I can only find you sites that uses the word, not dictionaries. Perhaps they don't recognise the word yet, and will adapt eventually.

personally i dun trust microsoft word ... or other dictionaries ... cos sometimes you know the word exists and they are just crap to put it into their database .... or maybe its just me ...
