Lakota has many different terms for "friend" depending if it is a man or woman speaking about a male or female friend, in informal or formal situations.

A common term used by men to describe their male friends is khola (a very throaty k followed by olah). This is the singular form; to make it plural you have to use the plural form of an accompanying verb (as in "my friend they-went-hunting").

In the Dakota dialect the same word is said khoda.
