I couldn’t get it. At first, I thought I might not know the word, but then my dictionary confirmed it. What was the context? Perhaps you should adjust the transliteration and then try it here yourself: http://www.yiddishdictionaryonline.com/

Sorry – it doesn’t sound familiar to me either. Zen’s suggestion of a context quote might help us.

Not in my lexicon, either. Sorry.

I have a hunch that you may be inadvertently combining two words into one misheard one.

But I have no idea what they may be. That’s why context is important. If you could let us know the general idea or thought, we could probably figure it out.
