Kalderaši, Lovari i ostale romske grupe iz centralne i jugoistočne Evrope pomerali su se ka istoku i zapadu i stigli čak do Amerike i Australije. Ova druga migracija, koja je usledila nakon takozvanog prvog talasa romske migracije u Evropi oko 1400. godine, bila je izazvana dugotrajnim socijalnim promenama, posebno ukidanjem ropstva u Vlaškoj i Moldaviji, i pojavljivanjem industrijalizacije.

  • Contribution Au Glossaire Sur Les Roms
    1 HDIM.IO/218/07 27 September 2007 ORIGINAL: English Roma and Travellers Glossary Compiled by Claire PEDOTTI (French Translation Department) and Michaël GUET (DGIII Roma and Travellers Division) in consultation with the English and French Translation Departments and Aurora AILINCAI (DGIV Project «Schooling for Roma Children in Europe»). Kindly translated into English by Vincent NASH (English Translation Department). General comments: The many different terms found in Council of Europe texts and on Council websites make harmonisation of the Organisation’s usage essential. That is the purpose of this glossary, which will be up-dated regularly . This glossary reflects the current consensus. Following its suggestions is thus strongly recommended (if in doubt, use the underlined term). Last update : 11 December 2006 2 The terminology used by the Council of Europe (CoE) has varied considerably since the early 1970s : «Gypsies and other travellers»1, «nomads»2, « populations of nomadic origin»3, «Gypsies»4, «Rroma (Gypsies)»5, «Roma»6, « Roma/Gypsies»7, «Roma/Gypsies and Travellers»8, « Roms et Gens du voyage »9. Some of our decisions on terminology are based on the conclusions of a seminar held at the Council of Europe in September 2003 on «The cultural identities of Roma, Gypsies, Travellers and related groups in Europe», which was attended by representatives of the various groups in Europe (Roma, Sinti, Kale, Romanichals, Boyash, Ashkali, Egyptians, Yenish, Travellers, etc.) and of various international organisations (OSCE-ODIHR, European Commission, UNHCR and others). The question’s complexity has obliged us to lay down a number of linguistic principles, which may seem a little arbitrary.

This diversity is greater among the Roma due to historical events, the lack of a common territory, the dispersal of their communities in many different countries, life in different cultural environments, group endogamy, etc. At the same time, this diversity is better preserved than in other European nations, yet it is still insufficiently known and appreciated.

    ROMANI GRAMMAR by Marcel Courthiade Volume 1: General Information, Phonology, and Morphology Translated from Albanian by Geoff Husič Originally published in Tirana, Albania, 1989 as Gramatika e gjuhes rrome Notes on the digital edition I originally completed this translation in 1989 and have recently digitized the print edition, the original text file of which is in a now-unconvertable format. Other than the few chances mentioned below, this pdf is identical to the print version. I have changed the original spelling of Romany to the more moden spelling Romani. Replacing text in a PDF is a fairly clunky procedure so there may be a few resulting format abberations. It was also not possible to change the spelling in few cases in the images in the text.

  • "Roma and "Gypsies"
    Roma and “Gypsies” Definitions and Groups in Sweden there are both Romer and Resande (Roma and Traveller) The term “Gypsy” is commonly used as designation for the people whose correct ethnic name is Roma. However, the same word is employed also to indicate different non-Roma groups whose lifestyle is apparently similar; like some “Travellers” and other itinerant people. We are not dealing here with the derogatory implications that are ascribed to this term, but only with the respectful meaning of the word which may be acceptable as a popular term to define a community of people having distinguishable cultural features. There are also other applications of this word which are not of our interest, as for example, in reference to people whose lifestyle is regarded as unconventional ‒ in a similar way as “Bohemian” ‒ or as it is applied mainly in America, to artists who have actually not any ethnic relationship with any Gypsy group, neither Romany nor non-Romany. Therefore, we can say that there are ethnic Gypsies who are Roma, and other Gypsies who are not ethnically Roma. In this essay we intend to briefly expose about both: Romany and non-Romany Gypsies. Romany Gypsies The Roma are a well defined ethnic community, composed by groups and sub-groups having a common origin and common cultural patterns ‒ that in many cases have been modified or adapted, according to the land of sojourn and other circumstances along history. There is a common Romany Law, which several groups do not keep any longer, but still recognizing that their ancestors have observed such complex of laws until not too long time ago.

    Marushiakova, E., Popov, V. "Historical and Ethnographic Backgraund. Gypsies, Roma, Sinti." - In: Guy, W. (Ed.) Between Past and Future: the Roma of Central and Eastern Europe. Hatfield: University of Hertfordshire Press, 2001, 33-53. [Updated] Historical and Ethnographic Backgraund: Gypsies, Roma, Sinti The region of Central and Eastern Europe, as described there, includes the countries from the former socialist block - the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, Albania, as well as the new states which have emerged from former Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia), and the Soviet Union (the European part – Russiaan Federation, the Ukraine, Moldova, Belorussia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia). Before the changes in 1989-1990, the name "Roma" was used as an endonyme (an internal community self-appellation) in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (except for former Yugoslavia). This name was not widely popular and did not have an official status. In order to be faithful to the historical principle we use the word Roma only for the period after 1989. In all other instances we use the term "Gypsies". We think that "Gypsies" is wider in scope than "Roma" and we also use it to include the Gypsy communities who are not Roma or who are considered to be “Gypsies” by the surrounding population but they do not wish to be considered as such and preferred various others identities. The Number of Gypsies in the Central and Eastern Europe Nobody knows exactly how many Gypsies are living in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. There are no reliable statistical and demographic data about the distribution of the Gypsies and their respective internal subdivisions in each Central and Eastern Europe country.

  • From Iberian Romani to Iberian Para-Romani Varieties Iberian Para-Romani from Iberian Romani To
    FROM IBERIAN ROMANI Linguistic contact between Romani and Spanish, Catalan, and other languages of the Iberian Peninsula began in the fi rst half of the fi ſt eenth century. This contact resulted in the emergence of what are known as the Para-Romani varieties – mixed languages that predominantly TO IBERIAN make use of the grammar of the surrounding language, while at least partly retaining the Romani-derived vocabulary. This book describes their evolution from the earlier, infl ectional Iberian Romani and argues that this previous, fi ſt eenth-century Iberian Romani was similar to the PARA-ROMANI “Early Romani” of the Byzantine period. Based on an extensive body of language material dated between the seventeenth and twenty-fi rst centuries, the book also draws attention to some language phenomena in these varieties which, until now, have not been described.
