The term 老头儿 (lǎotóur) is commonly used in Chinese to refer to an "old man." It often carries a colloquial tone and can imply familiarity or affection, depending on the context. It may be used to address or describe elderly men in a casual way, sometimes with a hint of endearment.
In contrast to more formal terms like 老人 (lǎorén), which simply means "elderly person," 老头儿 (lǎotóur) has a more informal and sometimes playful connotation. It's often used in everyday conversation and can reflect a sense of camaraderie or warmth.
