I was having a very light hearted exchange with a welsh speaking former Merpol colleague and he used the word “ chdi” to me.
He hails from Penygroes so is this expression for “ you” an informal use and mainly one used in north Wales.
He did describe it as proper Welsh .
Genuine question |  |

As in most European languages, there are sometimes two spellings of a word.
Yes, chdi would be the other word for ti, meaning “you”. |  |

To be honest I’d never seen that spelling or seen the word until you posted it here. It's not an expression or the spelling I’d use hailing from South Wales, but it’s defo an expression meaning “you” in an informal environment.
There are generally 2 expressions for the word “you” - “ti” and “chi”. The latter is generally used when you are speaking in formal environments, or showing respect to someone or dealing with older people. | | | |
