The German word for "shit".

In this context, "scheisse" is used to describe a negative or unfortunate experience that warrants a one-line response but does not warrant hard swearing.

"Scheisse" is commonly used in an environment where English is the main language and swearing would be inappropriate e.g. around a younger audience.
Person 1: "Hey, good news is I found the problem. Bad news is I can't fix it."
Person 2: "Scheisse."

Properly written Scheiße.

German for 'shit' and like in English, is a vulgarity. It can be used as an exclamation and a synonym for feces.

The verb 'To shit (deficate)' is Scheißen.

The soft E on the end is often dropped in common conversation or in times of emergancy but is seldom used by English speaking people and they may assume you're mispronouncing it.
