`  == Robert Plant's Romani roots? ==  I see that there are some information about Plant having some Romani roots. As far as I know, however, Plant said ``my mother was a gypsy``, where ``gypsy`` could've meant ``a traveller`` or a ``a hippie`` - in terms of a lifestyle, not ethnicity. He could've meant some Itinerant groups in Europe like for instance the Irish Travellers or maybe some Scottish Gypsy and Traveller groups. I know Robert Plant is from the UK, and I've heard that British people usually don't use the word ``gypsy`` when speaking about Romani people, but they use it when speaking about people who lead itinerant life. Any conformation that Plant used it in terms of his Romani ethnic origin?   `
