I can't find arrascar in dictionaries

Hello is this verb correct- "arrascar"? I didn't find it in the spanishdict.com and other dictionaries I use. There is only "rascar".

This question relates to:Spanish vocab and grammar list "List of Spanish -car verbs that change c > qu in the yo form in the preterite"

Hola Grażyna

Arrascar is also in R.A.E dictionary but they recommend to use "rascar" because "arrascar" is considered more "vulgar". Following this indication, we'll change the verb in the list and will use "rascar" instead.

Gracias y saludos
