* Rhymes: -omɑni
* Homophone: romaani (only when pronounced with long vowel)

### Noun

romani
* a Rom, a Romani (a person, a member of the Roma community or descendant thereof)
    Synonyms: see Thesaurus:mustalainen
* Romani (language)

#### Usage notes

* The international term romani is preferred in standard Finnish.
* The endonymic Finnish Kalo terms are kaalo (literally “black man”) and kaali (literally “black woman”). The calque tumma (literally “dark one”) is chiefly used by the Roma themselves.
* In Finnish, the Roma generally use mustalainen (literally “black person”), contrasting it with valkolainen (“Finn”, literally “white person”). However, these terms may be considered offensive by younger non-Romani Finns.
