Bitul (ביטול) means: cancellation; abolishment. Stress the last syllable ("bi" like bee, "tul" like tool).
The closest Hebrew translation of "selfless" is לא אנוכי [lo anokhi] which is translated back as "unselfish". Notice that this is the singular masculine form: "(he is) selfless".

It's pronounced: Bee (as in A B C D) along with tul: so basically its as you wrote it: bitul.
The translation of bitul is ×××××, and it means cancellation. As it basically means the same in hebrew, you can you it in several dialects, and also as you chose it; its to "cancel" yourself, "cancel" ands overlooking your will for others (usually for the spouse).
