Could somebody cite it? Any inflected forms seem practically non-existent, and there isn't much for the infinitive either. Equinox ◑ 19:26, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I thought the fact it is in a "real" dictionary is enough. In this case, it might be Yiddish. The JPS dictionary of Jewish words‎, by Joyce Eisenberg, Ellen Scolnic, Jewish Publication Society, page 154. Goldenrowley 04:35, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I added two English quotes, but maybe they more prove it is Yiddish(?), because both are embedded in English in italics. As Yiddish seems to inflect as shluffen (??). While I am at it, there's several English uses of the phrase "to shluff off" which mean something else. Goldenrowley 05:21, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * No, being in another dictionary isn't sufficient. Examples need to show usage. Equinox ◑ 15:43, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I can confirm it's Yiddish for "sleep" (not spelled this way, of course: Yiddish uses Hebrew characters). (Whether it's entered English I can't say; cites rule, as always, and, of course, italics argue against its being English.) &#x200b;— msh210 ℠ 16:51, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
