Different ways to say "man" in Indonesian
There are several ways to say "man" in Indonesian

General translation for "man" is "pria", opposite of "woman" or "wanita."

We also use "lelaki/laki-laki", which is the more common and less formal form

Finally, there is "cowok", the most informal form, perhaps the same with "dude" or "bloke"

Hope these will useful

Language pair: Indonesian (Bahasa); All
