Romani people
Ethnic group living mostly in Europe and the Americas
Is the use of the word Gypsy by non-Romani people considered okay?
'Gypsy' is considered a slur in the Americas by Romani people. Lady Gaga has faced online criticism regarding her use of the word 'Gypsy' as the title and lyrics of a song.
What kind of word is Gypsy considered in the Americas by Romani people? Would using #1 types of words be considered okay?
