if your gonna act like a gypsy dress like one! put a skirt and blouse on wherever you go and fix your hair nice and put on makeup and high heals and talk like one!.. i bet you cant guess what im saying only a real gypsy will know... to son pkazza tie mellow!
The word Gypsy meaning from Egypt let me highlight that eGYPt and is well known that the original Gypsy is from Egypt and went everywhere with their dancing and music as a livelyhood. The traveling gypsy is well known and so is the colour and variety. Gypsy are now not of any particular blood line but of many, but can usually link their heritage back to Egypt. These people are not Egyptian, but must of settled enough in this city to be considered from this destination.
@Philosophicalish I was told that gypsies were from india. People called them gypsy because they thought they were from egypt. It was a like a racial slur. Gypsy was kinda a racial slur made up for egyptians (even though they were from india) Like nigger is a racial slur for blacks or spic for hispanic poeple.
Everyone is all self-righteous here making comments about "this is not right, its supposed to be like that, she's not gypsy, I am", and so on, and so on... The beautiful thing about our culture is the fluidity of its nature. It is essentially mixed culture and as flexible as your own nature. So why the restrictions? Get over yourselves.
ehh, I don't know about this person. She seems vague with her details and does not seem to move naturally to the various dances. I can tell you from being Lebanese myself, she aint moving like a belly dancer.
She is wearing some "indian type", "egypt type", "spanisch type" etc. costumes, but no authentical gypsy dresses or gypsy stage costumes. And she roughly knows some of the typical moves, but it does not look like she is well trained in either of the techniques. And the first few indian moves are not at all gypsy, but classical. For a general impression about the evolution of gypsy dance, the video is ok I guess. But look up the specific styles to know how it actually looks like.
@lolita7426 it is apparent you have no appreciation for dance and know nothing of it otherwise you would know immediately that those are true dance forms from the respective cultures and they all are either based from or, like bellydance, influenced by, Rom style of dance as the people immigrated across the European continent.
@selinainvegas Also, if you were paying any attention, the first dance that she portrays is Indian. Which is (as she explains) is the basis of the Rom people and culture. The outfit is purely Indian and used in Indian dances such as Bharatanatyam.
They are not coming from Romania they are coming from INDIA and I know that. I am romanian but not gypsy . I love the music and the're culture is interesting, but some gypsy stealing , I don't saw gypsy doing crimes . Romanian language and story is very intersting too. Sorry for my english is bad because i am small now i have 11 years
I don't know how accurate these dances are but I LOVE the outfits!!! I would just wear them they are beautiful !!! Especially the black and red outfit!
she is very right about the Russian Gypsies. LOVE their culture. Yes, we have many gypsies there who come from Romania, etc, they are begging on the streets, poor and dirty kids are running around. but we have a BIG famous State Gypsy theater on Moscow, VERY respectful theater where generations of gypsy actors live and perform, they are in many movies and plays there. Loved by all. they are all a family. Watch our movie "Tabor uhodit v nebo", you'll be amazed!
O COM ON R INDIANS SO CALL GYPSY AN US GROOM 1 PPL FACT IS NO NOT FROM DAY 1 AN CAN U SAY ALL INDIANS R NOT GUYJOS 2 U AN R WE ORG FROM INDIA THE GROOMA IN INDIA SAY NO BOT GUYJOS SAY WE R SO R U GUYJOS YES MEN NOT ME DONT B FOOLS WE R GROOM FROM DAY 1 BI O DEL
I guess the only comment is the origins, while true India, the Romani language is clumped in with the Western, not Northwestern Indian languages, therefore would not indicate that they have origins in Punjab as Do mentioned in the video. But rather Rajasthan, Sindh, Gujarat (even if you look at traditional Rom clothing, it's nothing like Punjabi clothing, but most like the states mentioned).
shes not a gypsy at all! she doesnt even know what shes talking about... she sounds like she memorized some paragraphs from wikipedia... im a rom and ive never seen any of my family or friends dance remotely like that...
@zzzzzzz87She never said she ras rom or gypsy.And she didn't memorised it from wikipedia,her english is wierd because her language is french.I know her,she travelled a lot to know more about it since a young age,she own a several number of envyclopedia and good reference books.Oh and you should know that every gypsy dancer their own way of music interpretation. When she dance for real[ not like in this vid],she is amazing. Also she isn't young anymore stop batching on people you don't know :)
@MOSleeping i know she isn't claiming to be rom. i never commented on her english because it is irrelevant. it doesn't matter what age she is... some of the most amazing dancers i know are over 60. of course everyone in the world rom or not has their own interpretation to music and dancing but my point is this: to make a video that implies a connection with a culture she is not connected with... and is misrepresenting is the problem! and my culture has been misrepresented enough...
They would have stayed in India, because at the time when they left, India was the richest place on earth---and far more civilized than Europe. This was 900+ years ago.
Because of India's great wealth, it was targeted for invasion by an Islamic king (Ghaznavi), a Mongol. THAT'S why they left India, to become a homeless wandering people.
Mongols invaded, looted and raped much of Europe; Gypsies have never done that. Think again before hating a Gypsy.
@MeshugenahScientist yea think again having been stabbed in the back twice in my life by a random person and both times it was a gypsy. i have known many gypsies and all of em are criminals or drug users or both, and they have no morals and they are very narsistic. and thats just facts. the more you know one the more you want to stay away from them. so i stand by my statement. they shouldve stayed in india
Many people (not just Gypsies) will do bad things when crazed by desperation and hunger, and angered by injustices.
Here in Australia, our native Australians are accused of the very same things Gypsies are accused of---and yet it was them who had their country invaded and, yes, stolen from them. People who steal whole countries, killing thousands to do it, are respected. But a Gypsy stealing a loaf of bread---killing no-one---is despised. I cannot understand that.
@MeshugenahScientist i dont know how noble the gypsies in your country are but here 99% are on welfare and doing crimes. i hate every criminal just the same but the fact remains that 99% of finland gypsies are untrustworthy stealing, mugging, stabbing and needle drugs using criminals. i get it, you shouldnt categorize people by their race but man, gypsies, theyre all the same
@Jopari444 I'm a Gypsy and I haven't stolen anything in my life. Neither has my family. Stop making up statistics and generalising a whole race of people.
@GypsysRusTv She is a puri gadzhi trying to make money by pretending to be a Romnji (Gypsy woman). She is not dancing Romanes at all. She is just moving around and her dress too. Dancing Romanes is a cobination of complicated steps. This is a wannabe. Dilli lubnji in other words.
to those of you that are skaptical and haters on this woman how about you do your research on your own culture its good for you because yes it has been discovered that gypsy which is short term word for gyptians or egyptians were thought to have coem from egypt but it was in fact beacuse they were from india. through the evolution of languages and time that the people spread across europe names and tribes became different and even the romani language that the old gypsies speak has roots fr india
@thale9 sorry to contradict someone who thinks they know it all but you find as many if not more similarities with the Greek language and culture as the indian culture and it also depends on what Vitsa or "tribe" your looking at as even among us there are variations in how we say certain words try acyually hearing the language spoken or finding out the real customs not just the stuff our great grandparents dreamed up to tell nosy Gaji who want to write a book
So many people here talking as if they're imparting the Gospel about Gypsies.
Please google "The Pariah Syndrome"---it'll b your 1st hit. It has the highest quality research u can find.
I spoke2someone from India yesterday, showing him video clips of Gypsies&their language. He has 2 University degrees, and even he refuses to believe Gypsies are from his country. (His Uni degrees don't mean anything to me, but they seem to mean everything to a lot of people.)
I ain't no talkin about you, you seems to be intelligent. But In Hungary, they write that they want's to kill all inhabitant, and the government helps them to raise their nation and to bloom their population. In nowdays they provide a 1 million people and their 90% don't works, they make 10 child and they live from the aid. Hungarian inhabitants are living in terror. I don't hate them, but they concuss usevery day. And kill old peoples for asp. 30$ ....

I part gypsy and this is a bit of nonsense. This is a women that has learned a few bits of dances from differant parts of the world, mixed them with a bit of new age nonsensicle gabble and a few stereotypes thrown in for good measure and labled the whole show ''gypsy''. we should be trying to move away from this outdated stereotype of gypsies - not embracing it..

OMG, lol. We call ourselves Rromane which is the plural or Rromano (m) & Rromani (f). It is from the Sanskrit word "Raman". Rroma is just branch of Rromane and include groups such as the Kalderash. There are many groups such as the Sinte (inc. Manush), Kale (gitanos / Cigano), Romanishel who don't recognize the word. Rromane never passed through Egypt. They left India & settled in the Byzantine Empire before travelling across into Europe via Greece. You are not Rromani.
you r not a roma n you know not what u say n you do not say 4 us n all u roma we r not from india not from day 1 fact r ppl go back 2 b c not in or from india fact the roma in india say all indians r guyjos fact the roma in india say d old ppl roma from persia we r roma from day 1 bi o dol
I know gypsies who come from Hungary, Ukraine, Germany. Maybe, nobody knows where they come from. I think thats better, makes gypsies seem more mysterious
I watched it--it was of two mobs of Gypsies fighting each other with sticks and a starter pistol. But I also watched non-Gypsies at war. The non-Gypsies were using flying machines, and dropping things that went BOOM, and those things that went BOOM smashed houses, set people on fire, including mothers, children, babies .... and a cat ran out with her kitten in her mouth, dropped it on open ground, then ran back into the burning building ... I think to get her other kittens ...
@bona702 You dont no nothing about gypsys cause not all of em are tacistg and not all of then what to stab people ,,, Learn stuff before u comment u dinlo ,, im a gypsy and i ent rasist
I am a gypsy an i never seen a gypsy dance like you dance so you dont no how to dance like a gypsy lol you dont no how to dance you look like a freak!!!
i am gypsy they did originate from India more like Persia middle east they do speak a indo european type language it is part of ancient sanskrit language i have studied the features of Indians they do not resemble gypsies i believe they have descended from Iran because the features look similar another reason is gypsies belive in one god and there purity rules are the same as the jewish people what is clean and not clean
@dmarko21 also the phenotypic features: middle east vs indian, it's because most Rom are mixed! Hence they have features of the cross between Indian and Caucasian which is pretty much middle eastern! Also Indian people's features differ (North vs South), so you'd probably have to figure out what region you're looking at. This video has a good spread of what N & S can vary as. Also the clothing is remiscent of traditional rom styles.
"bellydance" doesnt originate in india. its one of many middle eastern folk dances and is often associated heavily with egypt, lebanon, and other arab folkloric traditions. india on the other hand is host to a variety of other folk dances, both classical and folkloric, but none are "bellydance" as we think of it today. they are instead rajasthani dance, kathak, odissi, bharatanatyam, garba raas, etc. none of these should be mistaken for bellydance- a lot of people confuse this for some reason
The Gypsies are a close-knit communal people who have a shared background, but are scattered throughout the world. Their origins have been the subject of controversy throughout the centuries, but in modern times, we have discovered, from research into their language, that the gypsies originated in Northern India, from whence they spread throughout Europe and the Middle East.
Okay...there you go.... here is the "history lesson" for today..... *walks away grumbling*
Gypsies are not from India, Belly dancing may originate from there, but the fact is that Gypsies and Gypsy dance came from Egypt. The name means "Little Egyptian" and they were shipped to Europe, Spain and India as well as Romania and Germany, this is perhaps where the confusion is. I'm Gypsy by my Grandmother and Great Grandmother, via Spain. We don't claim that Gypsies are only from Spain, we know our family tree, and it goes back all the way to Egypt, Romania, Asia Minor and Spain. :-)
So many people here talking as if they're imparting the Gospel about Gypsies.

Crunk addict is wrong... Gypsy people originally come from Egypt.
There was a Egyptian man who stole from a Pharoah in Egypt... when the Pharoah found the man instead of killing him told him you and your family must leave and never come back and from now on your family and you will no longer be called egyptian... but backwards you will be gypsy. The family left egypt and lived off fortune telling moving around from place to place. Now you can find Gypsy all over the world living the same.
lo siento, pero el flamenco como dices de españa, jamas veras a una bailaora sonriendo a no ser que haya terminado. Se supone que quieres transmitir pasion y no se consigue eso con una sonrisa, con una sonrisa consigues transmitir feminidad y dulcura, es un consejito y te lo doi por que soi de españa ;)
esa tipa miente los gitanos no vienen de india y para empesar se dice jom no rom y no tiene nada k ver con gypsys o gitanos yo soy gitana me sim chachi jomni y ella miente porke los nada tiene ke ver india con los gitanos para decir verdd los gitanos no tienen un origen son de todo el mundo y de todas partes tienen un dialecto de varias lenguas en una y por eso se les llama jom asi ke esa tipa miente y la cultura gitana es tan diferente a lok ella dice aver si dice ser gitana xk no bailo jomanes
@818TUCAN818 WTF ? It seems like u really don't know shit about gypsy culture, why don't u just shut up? Flamenco is a music style which come from south of spain, Andalucia and has been influenced by a lot of cultures (Arabic, Andalucian, Sephardic, AND Gypsy). The dancer in the video is absolutly not speaking about Flamenco but rather about Gypsies and how their dance has change as going along their trip which conduced SOME of em in Spain. Get EDUCATED don't spread your stupidity.
@Hazelitaaa Seems like you dont know shit about spanish culture i AM spanish dipshit. and in one part she called it flamenco flamenco is a gitano dance, and what she was doing with nothing CLOSE to what it really is! so i suggest you go on youtube look up flemenco gitano compare it to what shes dancing and tell me if its the same u dumb piece of shit haha dont know anything about rom/dom cultur ! lol my grandfather was HAHHAHAAHA
@Hazelitaaa oh i forgot to mention flamenco isnt music style its a dance, also saying arabic Andalusian is redundant Andalusia was an arab nation, so saying arab and Andalusian is wrong, btw its arab not arabic...arabic=language arab=ppl culture etc etc etc
@818TUCAN818 Bueno soy gitana y de Andalucia, payito de mierda. Que vaaaa me dices tu que el flamenco no es género musical ? El Flamenco es un arte que se presenta en dos variantes: musica (guitarra y cante) y baile. Nunca habia leido o oido una opinión como ésta, ay hablas en serio ? POR CIERTO lo k hace ella no es flamenco puro pero solo trata d demostrar como ha cambiao y evoluao el baile del pueblo ROM desde su origen. Muchisimas gracias por compartir tu ignorancia conmigo.
@Hazelitaaa hahaha vale ya vez? you just agreed with me! jo dije no bailo flamencop pero eso lo llamo, o no? and you just said its not flamenco so aqui ignorante los dues!
@BreezehBree Go and look up some other videos and see, obviously I can't show you and explaining it will do no good. I can gypsy dance myself, I am Roman Gypsy/ turkish and my family can also dance it well, and what I saw was not it. What she was wearing was gypsy though, especially when you have a lot of coins on it.
@babygirl661666 Would you mind pointing me to one so that I don't pick up a wrong one? >.> I'm trying to do a little personal research and I'd rather not get it wrong. ^_^"
@justinu07 that doesnt mean anything, you may be but she may have studied for many years. Its all about learning culture. You most likely learned the culture even if you are. She does not need to be a gypsy to know what shes talking about.
Someone once told me that the gypsies were te one that gave the dances and share spread European culture around. Like the flowers on the hair, and the dances were originate from the gypsies.
I feel as if you have portrayed the evolution of my people's, the Gypsies, dance very accurately. It's interesting to note the correlation to the Indian influences within the Flamenco (It wasn't until I was taking Spanish that I learned the Gypsies gave the dance to Spain). You should look up how the dance changed from where you left off, its a quick steped heel-toe... which is similar around the globe (Greek influence of slapping the legs???. I'd like to see how you dissect it. Well done!
true gypsie culture has spread in europe but ur forgetting north africa gypsies this is what isn't told in in this video gypsie in africa may not be as popular as hindus and gitanos but its goes back to the original gypsies or egyptians as where the word originated from

@IPHONEDIRECTOR maybe gypsys are indian and italian because my mum is a full gyosy she says we are from italy and you say from india so we might be from both really? im confuesed
GypsyXkiss lol!:)) u made me laugh! haha good 1 but sorry sis tell ur mome we arnt from itali we are from india ofcourse many gypsys live in itali yet that doesnt mean we came from ital?4example i was born in germ:&my sister my brother is maried 2an germ:girl&my father has worked half his live's in germ:he stil lives ther,,,yet gypsys dont come from germ: can u dig?;)and my 2 sons where born in US, so the list go's on&on we are every where but our 4fathers came from india bless u girl&devlesa!<3
I am from Gypsy ancestry, my grandfather's father was a real Roma. I had been belly dancing since i was 15 (now 25) and also love Indian, middle eastern and Spanish styles of dancing alongside the tarot, palm reading and the jewelery and i have an unsettled spirit in need of traveling. i dont look typical English with my dark curly hair and almond shaped olive colored eyes.all my childhood i had no idea as to why i wasn't "like the other kids" until i recently i discovered my roots.
@TinaHatake I'm sure she was saying "Rom", which would be correct...she didn't mean Rome; in fact, she specified India. Obviously she knew the difference there. There's a language barrier and an accent...think before you jump all over somebody.
yes you r true, i m from pakistan residing near river indus. few weeks ago i was wondring for the origion of indian /pakistani gypsies. for there life attracts me very much. wut i got wa the relation between roma and the gysies in here. the similarity between the languages was very enticing. i love the gypsies foe there great contribution to music and performing arts. for pakistan the film/music industry comprise mainly of gypsy people. the legends belong to your tribe. .
Those that do not treat them as American use to treat African Americans who use to say the same things about African American and Native American people? Savages, lazy, dirty, they dont want to work, Monkeys, gangsters, criminals. Why not speak about the countless criminals and "thugs" racist skin heads and hitler want to bes that have been killing our people?
The reason that it seems as though there is the contrary is due to media propoganda by racist media in racist Countries, unfair human rights only focusing the media on the minority criminal element and not on the hard working legal majority Rromani. You know the ones that work? The ones that do job training at anywhere they can? the ones that are in other Countries and whom other Countries's peoples embrace them, offer them wonderful education, fair housing.
So if you are going to pretend to say something, say the truth, the full truth. The fact is, there is a minority of Rromani criminal element in the Majority of Rromani, just like any other race.
You need to look at the history, conditions of living, inhuman treatment of them by many not all of your people.Euro bathrooms, "gypsy" bathrooms, no "Gypsys allowed. The ghetto housing, steralisations forced, segregated daycares for God's sake. How violent are small preschool children and whom among you who hate us so much would give decent jobs? even now even the American newspapers are begining to report on it.
No our name is not "Indi Rom" Rromani (pronounced "Ghomani") means "true man" not Romanian. It is not at all the same in any any way. Why not change Romanian to European Romans? For the love of Christ and Kristna, if you are going to be racist because of some personal thing you got going on;......just be it, you do not have to pretend you are a rasional and fair man as ....your words are read between the lines.
I Pray for you my friend who says with one breath love and in other hate and lives in his own blindness that he does not know the difference. Stop saying our people are violent, that is untrue. Our people have good and bad no more and no less (although we never had wars) then any other race.
help me find a way to not be hostile towards this man as he behaves mmore dangerous then the ones who threaten to kill us and spreads inacurate and false information publically, illigally in our world about our people whom are still till today being treated as sub human beings
. You did not acknoledge in truth one word i wrote and that is okay as I pray to our one Creater on this sacred open door heavenly bodies; ,Budda, Mother Mary, Sar,a aye Kali, Jesus;
That is not gypsy dancing I m a gypsy

They would have stayed in India, because at the time when they left, India was the richest place on earth---and far more civilized than Europe. This was 900+ years ago.
Because of India's great wealth, it was targeted for invasion by an Islamic king (Ghaznavi), a Mongol. THAT'S why they left India, to become a homeless wandering people.
Mongols invaded, looted and raped much of Europe; Gypsies have never done that. Think again before hating a Gypsy.

@MeshugenahScientist yea think again having been stabbed in the back twice in my life by a random person and both times it was a gypsy. i have known many gypsies and all of em are criminals or drug users or both, and they have no morals and they are very narsistic. and thats just facts. the more you know one the more you want to stay away from them. so i stand by my statement. they shouldve stayed in india

Many people (not just Gypsies) will do bad things when crazed by desperation and hunger, and angered by injustices.
Here in Australia, our native Australians are accused of the very same things Gypsies are accused of---and yet it was them who had their country invaded and, yes, stolen from them. People who steal whole countries, killing thousands to do it, are respected. But a Gypsy stealing a loaf of bread---killing no-one---is despised. I cannot understand that.

OMG, lol. We call ourselves Rromane which is the plural or Rromano (m) & Rromani (f). It is from the Sanskrit word "Raman". Rroma is just branch of Rromane and include groups such as the Kalderash. There are many groups such as the Sinte (inc. Manush), Kale (gitanos / Cigano), Romanishel who don't recognize the word. Rromane never passed through Egypt. They left India & settled in the Byzantine Empire before travelling across into Europe via Greece. You are not Rromani.

i am gypsy they did originate from India more like Persia middle east they do speak a indo european type language it is part of ancient sanskrit language i have studied the features of Indians they do not resemble gypsies i believe they have descended from Iran because the features look similar another reason is gypsies belive in one god and there purity rules are the same as the jewish people what is clean and not clean
dmarko21 1 year ago
@dmarko21 also the phenotypic features: middle east vs indian, it's because most Rom are mixed! Hence they have features of the cross between Indian and Caucasian which is pretty much middle eastern! Also Indian people's features differ (North vs South), so you'd probably have to figure out what region you're looking at. This video has a good spread of what N & S can vary as. Also the clothing is remiscent of traditional rom styles.

"bellydance" doesnt originate in india. its one of many middle eastern folk dances and is often associated heavily with egypt, lebanon, and other arab folkloric traditions. india on the other hand is host to a variety of other folk dances, both classical and folkloric, but none are "bellydance" as we think of it today. they are instead rajasthani dance, kathak, odissi, bharatanatyam, garba raas, etc. none of these should be mistaken for bellydance- a lot of people confuse this for some reason

The Gypsies are a close-knit communal people who have a shared background, but are scattered throughout the world. Their origins have been the subject of controversy throughout the centuries, but in modern times, we have discovered, from research into their language, that the gypsies originated in Northern India, from whence they spread throughout Europe and the Middle East.

Gypsies are not from India, Belly dancing may originate from there, but the fact is that Gypsies and Gypsy dance came from Egypt. The name means "Little Egyptian" and they were shipped to Europe, Spain and India as well as Romania and Germany, this is perhaps where the confusion is. I'm Gypsy by my Grandmother and Great Grandmother, via Spain. We don't claim that Gypsies are only from Spain, we know our family tree, and it goes back all the way to Egypt, Romania, Asia Minor and Spain. :-)

The family left egypt and lived off fortune telling moving around from place to place. Now you can find Gypsy all over the world living the same.

I feel as if you have portrayed the evolution of my people's, the Gypsies, dance very accurately. It's interesting to note the correlation to the Indian influences within the Flamenco (It wasn't until I was taking Spanish that I learned the Gypsies gave the dance to Spain). You should look up how the dance changed from where you left off, its a quick steped heel-toe... which is similar around the globe (Greek influence of slapping the legs???. I'd like to see how you dissect it. Well done!

The reason that it seems as though there is the contrary is due to media propoganda by racist media in racist Countries, unfair human rights only focusing the media on the minority criminal element and not on the hard working legal majority Rromani. You know the ones that work? The ones that do job training at anywhere they can? the ones that are in other Countries and whom other Countries's peoples embrace them, offer them wonderful education, fair housing.

So if you are going to pretend to say something, say the truth, the full truth. The fact is, there is a minority of Rromani criminal element in the Majority of Rromani, just like any other race.

No our name is not "Indi Rom" Rromani (pronounced "Ghomani") means "true man" not Romanian. It is not at all the same in any any way. Why not change Romanian to European Romans?
