Samir acknowledges that his people use the term, and that they do not object strenuously to others doing so as long as the intent is not to disparage. “Gypsy", Samir explains, "originally meant 'dirty - do not touch'".
Samir kaže kako i u njegovom narodu koriste taj termin, te se ne protive žestoko tome da ga i drugi koriste ako im namjera nije omalovažavanje. “Cigan", objašnjava Samir, "je izvorno značilo 'prljavo - ne diraj'".
