Merriam-Webster regularly updates its dictionary for relevance

[Pray To Jesus]

Their dictionary editing team regularly add new words. A less often known fact, however, is that they also remove dead (never used) words as well.

For example of word removal, the word "gullible" was slated for deletion, and has just been removed in an automatic update scheduled to their website www.merriam-webster.com just today.
