Poll: Fella

TimC

What's the difference?

Abi

Fellow means a person - research fellow and also means colleague - fellow teacher. Fella means young man. A woman cannot be a fella but can be a fellow.

Fella just reminds me a bunch of 1920�s New York ganstas, �Fella� is misspelled, there is no formal word as �Fella�, and yet is very commonly used in a more colloquial way. Both mean young man or just a man or a person and as Abi said �Fella� is used for a man.

'Fella' can mean 'boyfriend', while 'fellow' can't.

P-dant

You can only use 'fellow' as an adjective (my fellow students).

He's a tall fellow.
He's a tall fella.
Both have the same meaning but different regional spellings ;)

Fella is slang for fellow. It is not a real word.
