Pronounced like child without the d. It's a word used in AAVE. Usually used by mothers to refer to their children. Other people use it to refer to their younger friends or peers. Nicki Manaj said it on her instagram and now white people think it's just internet slang or "ghetto talk". White people pronounce it as "Chil-Ay" which is how you pronounce the country and not the AAVE word.
This is also the name of a country in South America.
