A grater (spelled like that, rather than greater) or shredder is a device used to make small strips of something solid. For example, if you have whole carrots and grate them (using the grater) you will get thin lengths of carrots.
The grater itself is usually flat metal with many small holes each of which has a "tooth" sticking up. As the carrot is run over the tooth, a little bit peels off and drops to the other side of the grater. These are now grated carrots, which are often used in salads or cooking.
There are different shapes of graters, including ones that are like a 4-sided tower with a handle on top. Each side has different size holes so you can get differently sized pieces at the end of your efforts. There are, of course, electric ones that are used in professional settings and an electric food-processor used in the home usually comes with several blades for this purpose.
The difference between grater and shredder is, as far as I know, a point of size. Cheese is a great example. If the end pieces are very small (almost crumbly) it is considered grated. If the end pieces are thicker and stay together when handled, it is considered shredded.

How do you oil a paper shredder?
There are a couple of ways that you can oil a paper shredder. The easiest way is to put shredder oil on a sheet of paper and run it through the shredder. Run it forward. After the paper has made it all the way through, run it backwards. This will ensure all the shredder blades get coated. I recommend oiling your shredder after every time you empty it. If you have visible access to the shredder's blades, you can squirt oil directly into the blades and run the shredder in reverse for about 15-30 seconds. Be sure to go from the far left to the far right, covering everything.
