Diddly-squat for Dummies

Alright, so "diddly-squat" is a slang term that means absolutely nothing or very little. It's used to emphasize that something is really or completely worthless or unimportant. For example, you might say "I didn't learn diddly-squat in that class" to mean that you didn't learn anything at all.

So, imagine you have a jar of pickles, and when you open it up, you find that there's only one tiny pickle inside. That pickle is like diddly-squat – it's hardly anything at all!

Or think about a basketball game where one team has scored no points – they might say they've got diddly-squat on the scoreboard. It's like the equivalent of zero, zilch, nada.

So, if someone says they know diddly-squat about a topic, they're saying they really don't know much about it at all. It's a fun way to express that something is really insignificant or unimportant. And that's what "diddly-squat" means! It's a slang way of saying that something is practically nothing or really not important. Hope that makes sense!
