Siditty (saditty) относится исключительно к чернокожим людям (особенно женщинам), которые ведутся или разговаривают как белые люди. Это слово на самом деле является искажением слова “city” так как городских жителей считают высокомерными. Кстати, белые люди в принципе не имеют «права» употреблять это слово по отношению к чернокожим.
