Informal English usage and possible translation issues

$

0
For better or worse, for some reason, it has become acceptable to informally address or refer to a mixed gender group as "guys" in at least some circles in at least some contexts.

Are there any languages with a word with the same usage, and translation mechanisms (dictionary, software, other) that would map that word to "men"?

I'm assuming there many translation mechanism language combinations which map an inherently male informal reference to "men", but that is not in the scope of this thread.
