Chide

Chide

<ch-eye>

scold; berate; lecture

To chastise someone or disapprove of someone's actions.

I chided him for eating too fast.

She always chides me for going out without a sweater.

Memory trick: We ask them to c HIDE their actions from us.

Used at work:
I chided him for being late each day.
