What does “Scrid” mean
'Scrid' is an old New England dialect word meaning a very small amount, scrap, or sliver of something, as in 'just a scrid more.' It survives in rural Connecticut and northern New England speech, often among older speakers. It functions much like 'a smidge' or 'a tad' elsewhere.
