tidadj.

Brit. /tɪd/, U.S. /tɪd/
Forms: 1600s tyd, 1700s– tid, 1800s tidd, 1800s– tit Brit. /tɪt/, U.S. /tɪt/ (rare, in senses 2 and 3).
Origin: Of uncertain origin.
Etymology: Origin uncertain.Apparently related to titbit n. (also first attested in the text cited in quot. a1641 at sense 1); however, the nature of the relationship and the relative priority of the two words are both uncertain. Nor is the sense development easily explained, and it is possible that sense 1 may be of a different origin from the later senses. The frequent collocation in sense 2 with bit may suggest that it shows a secondary development from or after titbit n. The suggestion, sometimes made, that the word may show the reflex of Old English tīedre (also tyddre ) weak, frail, infirm (compare quot. 1755) is untenable on phonological grounds. N.E.D. (1911) (at Tit adj.) also gave the following example, glossing the sense of tit as ‘dear, loved’ and relating it to the use of this form in quot. 1854 at sense 3, but it has since been shown that the manuscript reading for the relevant word is in fact triet excellent (see tried adj. 2):c1540 (?a1400) Gest Historiale Destr. Troy (1874) 7106 Þen vnhappely hys hest he hastid to do, Þat angart hym after angardly sore, Turnyt hym to tene & all the tit Rewme.
1. Chiefly English regional (south-west midlands and south-western). Esp. of a child: playful, frolicsome, lively; skittish, pert, forward; fractious, babyish, silly.
