- Source citation: Letter from Ian Hancock, The Romani Archives and Documentation Center, Nov. 1, 2000
- Information found: ("... the most often-proposed alternative [to Gypsies], Roma, presents problems. It does seem to be becoming the usual term in the press, but it is neither a singular noun nor an adjective ... The singular noun is Rom, its plural Roma, and its adjectival form Romani. While the two principal Romani organizations ... agree that Rom(a) be used as the preferred self-ascription for all populations of Romani descent, there are ... numbers of such populations which do not use the ethnonym for themselves. However, even these populations use the adjectival form Romani to describe themselves, their language and their culture ... My suggestion ... is to follow the pattern of referring to the group by its adjective ... and create a new subject heading 'Romanies' (though singular Romani, not Romany). Referring to Romanies is already long established in Britain ...")

- Information found: (Bohemian: The transferred senses are taken from French, in which bohême, bohémien, have been applied to the gipsies, since their first appearance in the 15th c., because they were thought to come from Bohemia, or perhaps actually entered the West through that country. Thence, in modern French , the word has been transferred to vagabond, adventurer, person of irregular life or habits, a sense introduced into Eng. by Thackeray)
