Roma which means 'man', it is not to be confused with the words like Rome or Roumania, as both these words are from Latin. The word 'Roma' is what the Gypsies call themselves & the word is Indian in origin.
Only some Gypsies (and some stupid clerks from the European Union) accept the term Rrom: the correct word in the Romanian language is ţigan.
A store of gypsies, or possible a caravan or family of gypsies
In slang, "buffer" can refer to a person or situation that provides a sense of security or acts as a shield from potential negative experiences or consequences. It can be used to describe someone who serves as a protective barrier or intermediary in a social context.
The collective nouns are a band of gypsies and a caravan of gypsies.

Gitanes, Tziganes, Rom, Roma... are some correct handles. While they try to tone it down, there ARE many Italian gypsies- often on the Carnival circuit.A relative of mine called them ( Carnival Italians)
