#1 The Romani, colloquially known as Roma, are an Indo-Aryan ethnic group, traditionally nomadic itinerants living mostly in Europe, and diaspora populations in the Americas. The Romani as a people originate from the northern Indian subcontinent, from the Rajasthan, Haryana, and Punjab regions of modern-day India. The Romani people are widely known in English by the exonym Gypsies, which is considered by many Romani people to be pejorative due to its connotations of illegality and irregularity as well as its historical use as a racial slur. In many other languages, regarding cognates of the word, such as French: Tzigane, Spanish: gitano, Italian: zingaro and Portuguese: cigano, this perception is either very small or non-existent. At the first World Romani Congress in 1971, it was unanimously voted to reject all exonyms for the Romani people, including Gypsy for its aforementioned negative and stereotypical connotations.

#11 Another breakthrough case. Sad that we haven't come up with a working vaccine yet but I'm sure Biden is on top of it.

#12 I believe it is spelled gaja,any who are not Roma. I have been corrected when saying gypsy. They live among others but keep their distance. I speak to them nearly everyday. One would say he has many girlfriends and they all love him. They have their problems as all of us do. When they are in trouble it's because they are Roma. I enjoy their differences and stories upon occasion.
