Pronunciation: [t͡ʃˈɪdi] (IPA) 
Chiddy is a word that is not commonly used in modern English, but it is pronounced as "tʃɪdi". The IPA phonetic transcription reveals that "ch" represents the voiceless palatal fricative sound, "ɪ" stands for the short "i" vowel sound, "d" represents the voiced alveolar stop sound, and "i" again stands for the short "i" vowel sound. Therefore, the correct spelling of chiddy is with a "ch" instead of a "t" at the beginning.
Chiddy is a slang term primarily used in African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) and certain urban dialects to refer to a female friend or acquaintance. The term is an affectionate variation of the word "shorty" or "shawty", which is used to refer to a young woman or girl.
The exact origins of "chiddy" are unclear, but it is believed to have emerged from African-American communities in the United States, particularly in inner-city neighborhoods and urban environments. It is commonly used within these communities as an informal and friendly way to address or refer to a female friend or someone who is considered part of one's social circle.
The term "chiddy" is often employed as casual slang in informal interactions and conversations among friends or peers. It is typically used in situations where individuals are comfortable with each other and have a close relationship. For example, one might say, "Hey chiddy, what's up?" or "My chiddy always has my back."
It is important to note that the term "chiddy" is considered slang and is not a formal or widely recognized word in the standard English language. Its meaning and usage may vary depending on the region, cultural context, and social group.
