The word "pasticheuse" is typically spelled with an "e" at the end, despite the fact that it is pronounced with a hard "s" sound. This is because the word is derived from the French word "pastiche", which ends in an "e". In IPA phonetic transcription, the word would be written as /pæstiːʃuːz/ to indicate the pronunciation of the word. Despite its somewhat unusual spelling, "pasticheuse" is still a valid English word that means "resembling or imitating various styles or genres".
