Romani linguistics

Romani linguistics studies the language spoken by the Romani people, often called Romani or Romanés. It explores its unique features, origins, and relationships with other languages, revealing how it evolved from Indo-Aryan roots brought from India centuries ago. Romani has many dialects influenced by the regions where Romani communities live, blending with local languages. Linguists examine its grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation to understand cultural identity, historical migration, and contact with other groups. Studying Romani linguistics helps preserve the language and promotes awareness of Romani heritage and diversity.
