IPA: /ˈʃiːtə/
KK: /ˈʃitər/
A machine used in industries to create sheets of materials like dough or fondant with a consistent thickness.
The baker used a sheeter to prepare the dough for the pastries.
The word 'sheeter' is derived from 'sheet' (from Old English *sceat*, meaning a piece of material or a layer) and the suffix '-er' (meaning a person who). A 'sheeter' refers to a person who works with sheets of material, typically in a manufacturing or printing context.
Think of someone who works with 'sheets' ('sheet') and adds '-er' to indicate that they are a person doing that work. A 'sheeter' is simply a person who handles sheets.
