Hi Vivie,
Gelak is a word rarely used. More commonly for ‘laughter is ‘Tertawa’ - To Laugh.
I like to mix the words up so that people get a variety.
In the Indonesian language there are severl words that have the same meaning.
These “gelak” words sounds new to me… as they’re not commonly used, except for “gelak tawa”
Thanks Barrie for showing me this, your BI even better than mine! hehe… 
Groetjes,
Vivie
