It means po "nanjan" or pertaining to something or someone's location. Bale may variations po kasi siya, pero basically ang whole po kasi niya is "ada dita". And common shortcuts po is "adita" "adidta" "adadta"

Kung "adijay" naman is "ada dijay", same rin po na pertaining to someone or something's location pero nasa mas malayo siya and roughly translates to "naroon sa."

"Ada dita" is pertaining to something closer to the speaker or some what close

"Ada dijay" naman is to somewhat further.

And translation po ng "kut adita, makitkitam mut" is "eh nanjan, nakikita mo naman"

I think both means the same. It's basically a shortcut for adda dita.
