Jiffy can be an informal term for any unspecified short period, as in "I will be back in a jiffy". From this it has acquired a number of more precise applications as the name of multiple units of measurement, each used to express or measure very brief durations of time. First attested in 1780, the word's origin is unclear, though one suggestion is that it was thieves' cant for lightning.
