Description

This bilingual course offers a comprehensive introduction to the Romani language, with a focus on the Kalderash dialect spoken in Europe, the US, Canada, and Latin America. The phonetic system is designed to be easy to understand for English speakers, and the book includes clear explanations of grammatical and linguistic terms.

Through 18 lessons, students will learn the basics of Romani, including verb and noun declensions, vocabulary, and grammar. The book also features quotations from native speakers, poems, songs, proverbs, and folk tales to give a flavour of the language's authenticity.

For those interested in further study, a comprehensive list of source materials is provided by bibliographer Edward Proctor, offering a wealth of additional resources for exploration.
