It's used in the USA, too. Perhaps you're more familiar with Romany? :)Array

Nope, haven't heard that eitherBut I'm really not current on slang. I said a racial slur once by accident. I thought I was making up a word, but my husband quickly corrected me. Luckily, we were alone at the time.

Roma and Romany/Romani aren't slang terms.Just so you know, Roma (noun) and Romany/Romani (adjective) are the correct terms. "Gypsy" is slang and many Roma are offended by the term.
