what do you call your mates?

>>71014257
man

>>71014257
Nevada here
Either bro or dude.

>>71014257
New Englanders do not make friends

>>71014257
f a m

I say "bud" or "buddy", bud.

>>71014257

Well, pal, I'm more of a bro or buddy fella, myself dude

>>71014257
Retard, or sometimes Dude.

"man"

I use buddy/bud in a condescending way

>>71014257
Bro or mate, sometimes fella.

>>71014257
compare

I'm waiting to see what bongs call their mates, but considering how late it's in bongland right now, I doubt any of them will show up.

>>71014257
"wey"

>>71014257
ma nigga

m8. Sometimes I might vary it with man or dude or something, but m8's the standard. Most people here actually say pal though

lad

By their names or not at all

>>71014257
I don't have friends. Which is accurately shown on the map.

By their names :^)

>>71014399
It's usually either lad or mate in the UK

bud

>>71014257
man

>>71014257
Their name, or dude

>>71014570
>lad

if the english "lad" is the same word as the Argentine one, then that can't be right.

you can say that you "go out with the lads", calling your group of friends "lads", but never when talking to one of your friends, like "hey lad", unless you're significantly older.

Man. Occasionally bro.
When I'm talking about someone who's not there,they're buddy, but that's only since moving to Canada (new England originally)

>>71014626
Depends on region mostly. E.g. here 'lad' isn't uncommon at all, it's probably more common than m8 but less common that pal, but back where I used to live people said shit like f a m, cuz, bruv, blud, blad (like 10 years ago, not anymore), g, boss, and of course m8. In some parts of the country people say shit like 'duck' or 'pet', though they have more feminine connotations than m8

>>71014257
cunts

Bub or b'y

>>71014808
that's not what I was talking about but good to know I guess

I think it is what you were talking about though - in this part of the UK I could greet my friend by saying "Alright, lad?" just as I might say "Alright, mate?" in a vocative, second person sense. I don't even have to be older. If I said "Alright, lad" in London, it'd sound slightly strange.

>>71015076
yeah, that's what I was talking about.
our word for "lad" is used by older people as an "endearing" way to refer to younger guys, or by young people to refer to a group of friends like "the lads"

>>71014257
I call them by first name or if I am addressing the group I say "guys"

I live in the Northeast and this map seems to reflect that, whenever somebody uses any of those 5 words to address somebody else its almost always aggressive and out of line. If I'm addressing someone I don't know I'll usually say "man" or "you" and try to quickly figure out their name.

>>71014257
>>71015218
I forgot to add that these 5 words also are used sarcastically or when mocking somebody.

Véi

I'm not your buddy, pal!

>>71015294
I'm not your pal, dude.

Their name, "mec". Maybe "pote" when talking about them.

>California isn't a tie between nigga and ese
fake

>>71015319
Or "les gars" when talking to a group of them.

>>71014257
f@m, bro, bruh, dude, man, and bud interchangeably and in no particular order

Chaps or senpai

>>71014257
Fella? How old are the people that say this, 80?

Puta.

>>71014626
Yeah you can call people lad
Go on /brit/ you will see it all the time
It's seen as very sincere when used though

>>71015421
Isn't that an insult in porchgues

>>71015421
Your only friends are whores?

Mainly by the pet nicknames we gave each other as kids.

Casual acquaintances get their real name.

Distant acquaintances get 'dude.'

>>71015421
>>71015471

Oh hold on I get it your using 'mate' as in sex.

Why don't american call their friends "lad" or "mate" like the brits and australians ?

It sounds so much better.

>>71014399
Lad ,mate,pal. Anr the degenerates "Mandem"

>>71017998
>dog

I fucking hate people who call their friends "dog"
you're an absolute nigger.

>>71015218
I love the word "y'all", personally. It's a perfectly logical contraction, it's no more "wrong" than saying "don't" instead of "do not".

>>71017998
>>71018020
Are you black or taco? I can't imagine a white cunt sayin dog/homie without them being ironic or white trash. though I am talkin out me arse so I'm probably wrong.

>>71014257
Bud, man, dude. All of these terms are unisex.

>>71018090
I'm white. Honestly, it started out as a kind of ironic thing with my close friends, but we said it so much it became normal and unironic.

Also I grew up with lots of black friends who used "dog" alot, so I'm used to hearing it frrquently IRL.

I call people "man" or "dude" normally; sometimes "bro" if I'm being ironic.

In English, "mate".

In French, "mec" or "meuf", generally.

>>71026983
I'm not even doing it.
"Dikka", a version of "Digga" or "Diggah" probably comes from the German "Dicker".
