About じゃない ⇒ ちゃう
The negative form of the auxiliary verb だ in Japanese frequently appears as じゃない (an abbreviation of ではない). In 関西弁 じゃない is often replaced by ちゃう. ちゃう itself is actually just an abbreviation of 違う, a common うverb meaning 'to differ'.
ちゃう may be used directly after either nouns, or な-Adjectives, to convey 'is not (A)'.
ちゃう may also appear in the past negative form. However, as it is a set expression (and not considered an actual conjugation of 違う), it will not be conjugated like a regular う - Verb, but will become ちゃうかった.
Fun Fact
じゃない may also be replaced with やない. やない being the 関西弁 equivalent of だ, with the い-Adjective ない attached to it. Like ちゃう, やない is used after nouns, or な-Adjectives.
When conjugating in the past negative form, やない follows the regular conjugation rules of ない, becoming やなかった.
