How can I understand "I can't shake the bad feeling."?

How can I understand "I can't shake the bad feeling."?

I found this sentence in the dictionary:
"I can't shake the bad feeling."

It's Japanese translation of "shake" says "shake off."
Does shake itself mean "shake off"?

Could you help me, please?

"shake" by itself can be used as "shake off". Yes. Personally, I would have used "shake off" in the given sentence.
