	Gypsy Children's Language Problems and Their Chances to Manage at School
		Teachers say that Gypsy children have a limited vocabulary, the range of notions that they work with is rather narrow, they are not able to understand the language of schoolbooks, the questions, the tasks, what the teacher is saying - so goes the list.
		The obvious response to this from someone who is not aware of the linguistic diversity of the Gypsy community in Hungary or someone jumping to false conclusions based on partial knowledge of the facts could be this: the source of the linguistic difficulties is their different mother tongue.
		The decision-makers as well as the executive bodies should be aware that the decisions that are being made at present are in a sense decisive for all the municipalities inhabited by Gypsies as well as for the coexistence of Gypsies and Hungarians and as such, for the future of this country.

	THE ENGLISH GYPSY LANGUAGE
		The poverty of their language in nouns the Gypsies endeavour to remedy by the frequent use of the word engro.
		The English Gypsies can count up to six, and have the numerals for ten and twenty, but with those for seven, eight, and nine, perhaps not three Gypsies in England are acquainted.
		The proper Gypsy plural terminations are retained in nouns, but in declension prepositions are generally substituted for postpositions, and those prepositions English.

	UT-Austin Linguistics Courses: For Non-Majors
		Language is all around us: whatever else people do when they come together, they talk.
		Language pertains to scientific, medical, and therapeutic fields; business; education, foreign languages, translation; formal systems, mathematics and logic; and law, argumentation, and practical reasoning.
		This includes how child language and minority- language are treated in the judicial process, and the effect of legal language on how justice is implemented for children and minorities, in both written and oral contexts.

		For a number of years, the Gypsy Verification Environment (GVE) was one of several systems approved by NSA for the formal verification of systems intended to be evaluated at the A1 level of the Trusted Computing Systems Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC or "Orange Book").
		Gypsy is unique in that the language integrated specifications into a programming language, making possible the creation of either abstract system level specifications or functionally specified program code that could be verified, compiled, and executed.
		Gypsy was used in the specification of the Honeywell SCOMP, the first system evaluated at the A1 level of the TCSEC.

	Language Problems
		What makes the case of the children having a Gypsy mother tongue, socialised in a linguistic environment of rich and distinctive oral traditions similar to the case of children whose mother tongue is Hungarian, i.e.
		The examination of the linguistic socialisation of children from different social layers or ethnic groups and of their chances at school has shown that the ways of using a language that are learnt at home may count as advantages or disadvantages at school.
		Without pre-school education, a very large number of Gypsy children will inevitably fail at school, which brings along (as a strategy of defence on the part of schools) the different, open as well as hidden, forms of segregation.

	Gypsy Folk Tales: Introduction: Gypsy Language
		It is a relief to turn from the thousand and one appellations under which Gypsies have been known at different times and in different countries, to the sure and unerring light that their language throws on their history.
		The total number of Greek loan-words in the different Gypsy dialects may be about one hundred; and the same loan-words occur in dialects as widely separate as those of Roumania, Hungary, Bohemia, Poland, Lithuania, Russia, Scandinavia, Germany, Italy, the Basque Country, Spain, and Brazil.
		This is important as indicating that the modern Gypsies of Europe are descended not from successive waves of Oriental immigration, but all from the self-same European-Gypsy stock, whenever that stock may have first been transplanted to Europe.

	Dom Research Center - News Clips - Israel - '2001 International Romani Union Report:'
		Today, Gypsy people prefer to be identified as Romany in Europe and in America; but in the Middle East and North Africa many still refer to themselves as Dom.
		The Arabic language is perhaps the primary factor contributing to the proliferation of dialects in Domari.
		When their native language lacks a word they borrow that term from the Arabic that is spoken in the area, thus regionalizing their own language.
