man
"Bolan" mi je vrlo autentičan izraz, i nije ga lako jednom rečju prevesti, jer se može koristiti u različitim situacijama. "Bro" mi je jedno od prihvatljivih rešenja, ali bih ja radije išla sa "man", zato što mi je "bro" isključivo "prijateljski" termin, a "man" se može koristiti i u "negativnim" rečenicama, ne toliko prijateljskom razgovoru, što se odnosi i na "bolan".
Takođe, "man" bih upotrebila u obraćanju i muškarcima i ženama.
Npr. Ne diraj to, bolan! - Don't touch it, man! (instead of "Don't touch it, bro!")
Gdje si, bona?! - Where are you, man?!
Naravno, sve zavisi od konteksta, pa "bro" može više odgovarati.

Tek sad videh u diskusiji primere rečenica koje prevodite, tako da bih sa još većom sigurnošću išla sa "man":
Šta ima, bolan? - What's up, man?!
O čemu govoriš, bona? - What are you talking about, man?

I think both "dude" and "bolan" sound equally retarded; thus, I believe that dude is even ore suitable than 'man' [=momce].

nisam sigurana da sam razumela vasu drugu recenicu. Ako mi mozete malo pojasniti na sta mislite. Ako ste s ovim mislili da bolan znaci kad je neko bolestan u ovom slucaju se ne radi o tome.
Radi se o satrovackom izrazu koji se cesto korisi u Bosni.
Primer recenice koju prevodim je : Sta ima bolan? ili o Cemu govoris, bona?
Ima dosta slicnih u tekstu.
