what the hell is the word fridicative?????????

No colloquialism here, mate; it's a typo, plain and simple, and I have
no idea what he meant to write.

It's a possibility he meant "Fricative"

While it's used in speech, the definition has to do with forcing air through a
narrow channel.

Just a guess, mind you....
