Roms
Zgadzam sie z Moonia co do roznych wersji slowa "Romowie" w jez. angielskim, ale w prasie anglojezycznej najczesciej uzywana nazwa jest "Roms". Wiec jezeli kontekst jest taki bardziej dziennikarski, proponuje "Roms".

Podkreslam, ze chodzi mi o prase, a nie o urzednikow... Ponadto, prasa ktora czytuje, jest z kregu \"American English\", wiec co do GB wolalabym sie nie wypowiadac :)

Names of the Romani People
Many names have been used to refer to the Romani people, including: Cigano, Gypsies, Gipsies, Rom, Roma, Romani, Tsigani, Tzigane, Zigeuner, and others. Most Roma identify themselves either by their tribal name or by one of the names beginning with the prefix \"Rom\". Frequently, a prefix with a double \"R\" is used, as in \"Rrom\". \"...the Council of Europe has approved the use of \"Rroma (Gypsies)\" in its official documents (CLRAE Recommendation 11 - June 1995)\" 5 Because of centuries of hatred, the name \"Gypsy\" has become a \"derogatory, pejorative and offensive\" name. It was invented by Europeans, who incorrectly believed that the Roma had their origin in Egypt.
