Origin: A borrowing from Yiddish. Etymon: Yiddish shlimazl.

Etymology: < Yiddish shlimazl (Western Yiddish) unlucky event, bad luck, misfortune, (Eastern Yiddish) unlucky person < Middle High German slim crooked (see slim adj.) + Hebrew mazzāl luck (see mazel n.). Compare earlier shemozzle n.Compare German Schlamassel unlucky person, (now usually) bad luck, unlucky event (early 19th cent.; also †Schlimmassel, etc.; < Yiddish). An alternative etymological suggestion derives Yiddish shlimazl < a post-biblical Hebrew phrase šellō mazzāl, literally ‘that which is not luck’ ( < Hebrew še-, relative pronoun (rare in biblical use, but superseded 'ăšer as the relative pronoun in post-biblical use) + lō not + mazzāl). However, this phrase is unattested and would not be idiomatic Hebrew, as well as posing phonological problems. Compare the following earlier example of the German word in an English context:1881 Jewish Chron. 12 Aug. 10/2 This dialect generally known by the name of Judisch-Deutsch..furnishes a clue to several entirely non-German expressions and phrases that are currently used in South Germany, such as uzen (to banter), meschugge (crazy), schote (fool), schlimmassel (ill-luck), schlemihl (an awkward person), &c.
