Pages : 280
Book Description
Excerpt from The English Gipsies and Their Language As Author of this book, I beg leave to observe'that all which is stated in it relative to the customs or peculiarities of Gripsies mas gatfiered directly from Gipsz'es tfiemselves; and that every word of their lan guage here given, whether in conversations, stories, or sayings, was taken from Gripsy mouths. While entertaining the highest respect for the labours of Mr George Borrow in this field, I have carefully avoided repeating him in the least detail; neither have I taken anything from Simson, Hoyland, or any other writer on the Rommany race in England. Whatever the demerits of the work may be, it can at least claim to be an original collection of material fresh from nature, and not a reproduction from books. There are, it is true, two German Gipsy let ters from other works, but these may be excused as illustrative of an English one.

American Gypsies (Classic Reprint)
Author: Albert Thomas Sinclair
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780266862215
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
Excerpt from American Gypsies As a rule Gypsies are unwilling to teach a stranger their language. It' was therefore only by liberal presents of cigars and tobacco to the men and bright silk handkerchiefs to the women and girls that I induced this band to teach me. Again, Gypsies seldom can read or write, and it is not easy to learn a language accurately from ignorant people. For instance, I asked how they said in Gypsy Will you have a cigar? They said Will tuti lella tav. Later, however, I discovered this phrase meant Will you have a smoke, not Will you have a cigar. Ignorant people also soon tire when teaching you, and mislead by their answers, saying yes often when they should say no, simply because that happens to make it easier for them. Frequently their replies are very amusing, and it is difficult to get an answer to your question. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
