Twisted Reflection

Now keep in mind I do admit that without spell check I would be in deep crapola out here, even with it I am sometimes.
But this was still kinda funny ( to me anyhow )

I'm leaving the grocery store the other night, the change booth attendant and the checker who checked me had been trying to figure out a word in a crossword puzzle. In fact I had to wait for 3 minuets before she realized someone was standing there waiting on her.
She apologies and explains that they are stuck on this word and it's just driving them nuts for half an hour and that she didn't even see me there.
She rings me up..I pay..then ask.. so..what letters ?

She tells me that it's just 5 letters and that they have most of the other words figured out already

the five letters were

edncu

I solved the word for them... I got very chin down stares of embarrassment when the irony hit them.. I was nice and just smiled and acted like I didn't even notice the humor

do you know the word ?
