A chirp is an extra "squeak - high pitched noise" in the tip of the reed.
It usually occurs when the tip is not balanced and/or evenly scraped or too much has been taken out between the tips tip and heart.
A shrill reed is one with no resonance and depth to the sound. It tone is thin and unpleasant. This usually occurs when a red is overly scraped and the entire balance of the reed is off; and maybe with a tip that is too long for the rest of the reed. It should not be confused with a light -airy sweet sounding reed which has resonance and a core sound.
As for as a "Wonky" is concerned! I can only guess ...... a reed that does not behave at all. Poor pitch stability, in flexibile and probably all over the place ... unless you mean "Honky" like a duck; then it is a reed with no finess and a ruckus unrefined tone.
That's my two cents ..... Overs may have a slightly different take on things.
