The term 'gypsy' specifically refers to the Romani people, an ethnic group with origins in South Asia.

Cultural Identity

'Gypsy' can be seen as pejorative or disrespectful; some prefer 'Romani' or 'Traveler'.

Sensitivity Needed

Historically, gypsies traveled for work, but not all modern Romani people are nomadic.

Traditional Lifestyles

Adjectivally, 'gypsy' can describe a free-spirited, adventurous lifestyle, not just ethnicity.

Metaphorical Use

The adjective form of 'gypsy' often implies a lack of attachment to a traditional home or place.

Relationship to Home

When referring to someone as a 'gypsy' in a non-ethnic context, it's typically informal and light-hearted.

Informal Tone

In the colloquial sense, being a 'gypsy' can suggest a voluntary choice of itinerant lifestyle.

Personal Choice
