informal
An informal way of saying fellow, meaning a man or boy.
Fella is simply a relaxed, spoken spelling of fellow, used to refer to a man in a casual, friendly way, as in that fella over there or a good fella to have around. It appears often in dialogue, song lyrics and everyday speech, and can also be used affectionately to address someone directly, as in listen, fella. The word carries none of the formality of fellow and would sound out of place in serious writing.
