Firstly, the proper word is "Romani". Usually when someone uses the word "Gypsy" they mean Romani. Some people call themsleves manouche, sinti, santo, and dom.
Before there were two groups of gypsys, the Domari and the Romani, some spread around Europe, some around Asia, so that's why we are around the word. After a while they spread through the world.
They either came from or came through India. Their DNA can be found scattered about India which indicates that they spent a good amount of time there.
However, we have isolated a very specific Y chromosome and it is not found in all of India.
Current hypothesis is that they originated from Asia but this is a huge question mark.They lived in India a amount of time and then they started to create their language. They took some words from Indians ,meaning aspani,iaka, nak, choro,can,iek(1)doi(2)trin(3)shtar(4)pangi(5)chou(6),after 6 its numbers is pronounced the same way as the Greeks. They have a little of Greek too.
