• Anticriticism — A doctrinal current or theoretical manifestation identical to metacriticism; a set of arguments, essays, or philosophical stances through which writers and artists challenge the validity, authority, and hermeneutic methods of institutionalized academic criticism. This neologism, borrowed from the Anglo-Saxon cultural sphere, theorizes the independence of the creative act against restrictive analyses.

• Artiurti — An archaic and phonetically corrupted designation, originating in old Orthodox polemical texts, used to distort the Armenian word 'Araciavorat' (the genitive plural of Araciavorc), which designates the pre-Lenten fast established in Armenia by Saint Gregory the Illuminator.
