diener

/ˈdiːnə(ɹ)/

Where it comes from

From German Diener (“servant”).

noun dieners

A morgue worker responsible for handling, moving, and cleaning the corpse. Before dawn every morning, the dieners would array the day's corpses on the tables in the small, unventilated autopsy room, ready for the medical examiners to splay them out under unforgiving, hot lamps that left patches of dark in the corners.
