Sommario/riassunto

The interest in Romani, the language of the Roma or ""Gypsies"", has grown considerably in recent years. Romani has drawn attention from a.o. grammarians, sociolinguists, Indologists, language contact researchers, language planners, educators, typologists and historical linguists. This Indic language is spoken by between five and ten million people world-wide. The bibliography also covers two other Indic languages spoken by peripatetic groups, Dom or Domari from the



Middle East, and Lomavren or Bosha of Eastern Turkey and Armenia.
