I think that that word you seek is "cliches" pronounced as you spelled it.

Problem with dictionaries is that you need to know how to spell the word
before you can access it! :-)

There is a book called the "Bad Speller's Dictionary" which spells words as
they are commonly misspelled so that they can be found--then it gives you
the correct spelling, etc.

Stay well,

Larry
