dippin'
Brief downward plunge
Dippin' is an informal spelling of dipping, capturing the dropped g of casual speech.
It appears in contexts where the full word would sound stiff: We're dippin' out early, caught him dippin' into the cookie jar.
The spelling signals relaxed register—texting, dialogue, hip-hop lyrics—rather than any shift in meaning.
