No it isn't. It's slang, and written as "fuggedaboudit", so you

words". The very definition of slang is that it consists of
non-standard and informal words and terms ... "

Google is your friend when it comes to spelling it:

furgedaboudit: 286 hits
fuggedaboudit: 41,600 hits

Pronunciation is highly localized, though

I was born and raised in Noo Yawk. The pronunciation is whatever you
want it to be. Since the spelling is phonetic, ya pays yer money an ya
takes yer cherce.

Is your memory that selectively short.
When I said you corrected my spelling of a non word, yu called me a
liar. If you thumb back, just today, you will see.
NO! I really expect a weasel out. But If you are a gentlemen, you
certainly would admit your error and apologize.
