I don't know if your first language is English (it isn't for me), but as far as I know in English you have to use "the market" because you are referring to a specific place. If you have "market" as a pronoun and you know it must be singular then you use "the market" or in this case it could also be "a market"
- So toko is a small shop and pasar is market?
- I just asked google translator (don't yet know anything else other than KBBI which is too much, since it's in Indonesian) and it says that "bazaar" is also "pasar". Any other words to distinguish them?
- Actually, maybe someone would like to list a few names for shopping-related places? :D

Yes.
toko = shop , store.
pasar = market.

'bazar' can be a market, but it's not exactly the same in Indonesian.
'bazar' can also be something like a fair/exhibition.
'bazar' is usually only a 'market/fair' for a limited time.

toko , warung, kedai, etc....
There are many words and names for shopping related places, especially if you combine the base word with other words ('Gabungan kata').
