Looks like a dictionary-only word. DCDuring TALK 10:20, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can find lots of mentions, but only one use. —Mr. Granger (talkcontribs) 13:51, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Although I didn't find any more exuperables, I found enough inexuperables to start a page. Smurrayinchester (talk) 14:47, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think many English dictionaries went to their Latin, French, or Italian dictionaries, found words that could plausibly be turned into English words, and dispensed with finding any actual usage. I'm doing the same thing with Latin words ending in "bilis", except I'm checking for actual usage, using {{trans-see}} to send would-be translators (and others) to less rare synonyms where they exist, and extirpating the word from any definitions in favor of any less rare synonym.
