I cheated in a game of Scrabble and now I want to see if I can make this a real word. I think it means "something that is attempted to be passed of as genuine or authentic" like a genwenen artifact. Or if you have a better idea of what it should mean that would be great too.

Sorry, but this doesn't make much sense. It is hard to pronounce and doesn't seem to have any roots in anything. Even if thousands of people started using it, it would take years to be accepted as a real word.

1. you only THINK it means "something that is attempted to be passed of as genuine or authentic?" that means you made the meaning up, right, because you seem to want a better idea of what it should mean!!!
2. and how's the pronunciation going to be like??? gem-wEEnERn??? :D
3. well, you need to be able to convince us answerers... people in general don't like changes--see the above answerers answers? :) and yeah, it's not very convincing to me either, with your uncertainty about the definition of the word...
4. in conclusion, i would use that word only if the definition is accurate/correct (dictionary source needed) and pronunciation is given :D good try, though! ;)

You can check if the word exists or not in a Scrabble dictionary. See http://www.scrabulous.com/scrabble_dictionary.php
