I believe it is.  The ending {-ew} isn’t that common either.  I could only find six examples (not counting compounds/noun phrases):

 

ghew               bug,  cootie,  insect (n)

Hew                statue (n)

yelvew            texture (n)

 

lew                  bloom (v)

qew                 use the third (ring) finger (v)

wew                glow (v)

Is this the first canon word ending in {-ew'}?
