> It's again, unofficial and unwritten and unstudied American English.
Hm? Where'd you get that impression?
It's certainly unofficial -- English has no official governing body, so essentially _all_ English is unofficial. However, zero-derived denominal verbs are quite common in even formal written English [0], are well studied [1], and aren't at all limited to American English [2].

I see this endlessly repeated across the Internet, but it doesn't work. -n't is not a general-purpose clitic the way -'d and -'ve are; it can't attach to arbitrary words. ("Well, Mary'd _said_ she was gonna, and the rest of 'em've all gone home.")
Yes, there are portions of the internet which gleefully misuse it on everything, and sometimes I am part of those portions; but even there, a) it's marked speech, and b) you wouldn't say *Y'all'dn't've gone, you'd say ?Y'all'd've gonen't, and only partially because it's funnier.
Se fareblus oni, jam farintus oni. (It definitely won't happen on an echo-change day like today, either. ;))
Contra my comrade's comment, Esperanto orthography is firmly European, and so retains European-style casing distinctions; every sound thus still has two letters -- or at least two codepoints.
(There aren't any eszettesque bigraphs, but that's not saying much.)
"epicaricacy" fails the simplest test for word-ness: it's never [0] used with the expectation of being understood without explanation. (Nor ever has been, according to Wiktionary.) It seems to have been one of the earliest Nihilartikels.
It could still be adopted as a learnèd (read: pretentious) borrowing from Greek, of course, but in that case it would be spelled epicharicacy.
