the Shee

The only often-used word found in any dictionary is "iceberg lettuce", but of course that is two words. And in less Greebo was mistaken in her question's phrasing (yeah right! smiley - biggrin), it cannot be the answer.

So therefore I offer up to you:
~ickface: "the openmouthed grimace a cat gets when he smells something funky; also dumb face, lion face, yuck face" --the Cat Dictionary
~Icommerce: also known as "Ecommerce"--doing business over the internet


And then of course there is the ICCE, but that is an abbreviation.

smiley - peacesign

Well done Livzy... indeed this one is your point... and the answer and the reason is written here now for those who just did not understand...
Ice; each word begins with the last two letters of the previous word.
