Thank you, this was very helpful!
Nick: You guys have your own resthomes?
Monroe: Yeah, we're not savages. Except for Schnietmachers.
Nick: Noted.
Well, hm, now the reapers-theory doesn't work that good anymore. I simply don't have an idea.
"Schnitt" means "cut", as I've said before.
"Schniet" is no word I'm familiar with. Perhaps something in dialect, but that's not typical for Grimm-German.
"Schnee" (means snow, you speak the "e" like in "dentist" but longer) you could pronounce wrong and come out with "Schnie", I've thought of the Santa Claus- Wesen, but that was wrong too, that was a "Gefrierengeber" (to-freeze-giver)
It's possible there is a Yeti-like Wesen called Schneemacher, it would suit to "savages" but not with the Kelly-scene. -shrug-
