Fellah

Well kiddo, fellah is a word that some people use to talk about a guy or a fellow. It's kind of like saying "that man" or "that guy".

Sometimes people might use it to refer to someone they don't know very well or to someone they might not remember the name of. It's a way of being friendly without using their real name.

But it's important to remember that not everyone uses the word fellah and it can sound a bit old-fashioned or even rude to some people. So it's always best to use someone's real name or just say "that person" if you don't know it.
