bufflev.

Etymology: ? Onomatopoeic; connected with some sense of buff v.1; or ? misprint for bustle. ‘Buffle to puzzle, be at a loss’ in Johnson (and all subsequent Dictionaries) is a bogus word, founded on the misprint of buffling for bustling.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈbuffle.
