Repeat last two stages in rapid succession. The resulting sound should be akin to cute hyperventilation, or a high pitched giggling without the use of the vocal chords.
Sciffling is most often used as a sign of delight or frustration, depending on the facial expression that accompanies it.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
