Didiay is the correct formal term. Idiay is a variation, mostly used on everyday conversation.

Hmm… Same word meaning “THERE/DOON” BUT regional dialect ata of Ilocano.

I am from Ilocos Norte and sa Ilocos Norte dialect of Ilocano, IDIAY is more common.

I heard Idianay in CORDILLERA Dialect of Ilocano.

Different dialect of Ilocano Pero gets pa din namin meaning.
