    I use it frequently. In Dutch, I'm used to using its equivalent, "gast".

      "Man" and "dude" are probably tied in my daily vocab.

          I never say "dude." Never, never, never, never. Well, maybe in the first sentence of this post, but other than that: never, never, never!

            I think it more often than I use it.

              Almost never. "Pal," "buddy," "chap," and "fellow" are used more.

                  I use "buddy," "pal" and "ace" when making a snide/condescending remark at someone.

                  I use "dude," depending on the company I'm around. When around people my age it just kinda comes out a lot (same with "man"). Tech debates at lunch with fellow 20something geeks are pretty interesting.

                        That would be Amsterdams, not Dutch

                        I occassionally use it. I use "man" more often, which means the same in Dutch and English. Probably use "kee'l" the most though, which is Twents, a local dialect and my native tongue.

                              Rarely, except for the few times I talk to my very young nephews.
                              Never when I write anything.

                                I use the Portuguese equivalent word, "cara".
