Mitä tarkoittaa

Chippy on englanninkielinen sana, joka kuvaa henkilöä, joka reagoi helposti negatiivisesti tai puolustautuu herkästi. Sanaa käytetään usein kuvaamaan ihmisiä, jotka ovat hermostuneita, ärsyyntyneitä tai eivät siedä kritiikkiä. Se voi myös viitata tilaan, jossa henkilö on ärtyisä tai kiukkuinen, mikä voi johtua monista syistä, kuten stressistä tai väsymyksestä.
