It is an ancient indigenous language formed using the Ogham technique that gradually developed towards its present form under the pressure of contact with Irish and Hiberno-English. Mincéir means Traveller and Thari means talk, so this might be translated as ‘Traveller talk’.  \nThe closest living language is old Irish, which was spoken in Ireland pre 1200s. While the language is practiced mainly through oral tradition, with very little written history of it, the words for ‘priest’ and ‘God’ shown in old, pre-Christian documents in Ireland show shared lineation between the languages. The language is widely used today and the majority of people who speak it also speak English. There are different dialects of Irish Cant and in Ireland alone, there can be differences in words commonly spoken across the country and differences in spelling between people.  \nARE YOU GOOD?  \nAr munya dil?  \n/Ar munya hu?  \nMY NAME IS    \nMydil munika...  \nONE, TWO, THREE  \nAin, do, tré  \nI’M GOOD  \nMydil Tome/Munya  \nTAKE A CUP OF TEA  \nBug a gushach weed  \nI’M PROUD TO BEAN IRISH TRAVELLER  \nMydil Mincéir tashler  \nWHAT NAME DID YOU TAKE?  \nMunika Bug astúrt, lit?  \nWILL YOU GET MEA CUP OF TEA?  \nWill ya Bug mi’dila gusach a weed  \nMAKE SOME SPACE  \nCrush mier (move over) and Bug mi’dil nomera (give me room)  \n[www.gypsy-traveller.org/grthm](www.gypsy-traveller.org/grthm)  \nWant to learn some useful words and phrases in Scottish Cant?  \nScottish Cant is spoken between Scottish Gypsy Traveller or Nacken people.  \nWhile there is a standardised strain of Cant, localised dialects mean there are multiple evolutions of the dialect. The language is almost entirely oral and differs between geographical locations or through family and social preferences. The language is constantly evolving. For Scottish Gypsy Travellers, Scottish Cant is often the first language for children, but will be accompanied by other languages used by parents.  \nScottish Cant shares greater commonality with Rromanés than with Gaelic languages, revealing the lineage of Scottish Gypsy Travellers from Northern India, with Roma peoples. It is part of the phenomenon of Indic diaspora languages spoken by travelling communities of Indian origin outside India. There are different dialects of Scottish Cant and in Scotland alone, there can be differences in words commonly spoken across the country and differences in spelling between people.  \nHOW ARE YOU?  \nIrr ye weel?  \nMY NAME IS    \nMiro nav si    \nONE, TWO, THREE  \nYeck, dui, trin  \nI’M GOOD, THANK YOU  \nI’m barrie, parruka tute  \nI’M PROUD  \n(NOT EMBARRASSED) TO BE A NACKEN  \nI’m nai shaant tobe a Nacken  \nWHAT IS YOUR NAME?  \nSossi tiro nav?  \nI’M DYING FOR A DROP OF TEA  \nI’m moudin’ fur atoti wichin o’ char  \nMAKE SOME SPACE  \nBudge alang (move over)  \n[www.gypsy-traveller.org/grthm](www.gypsy-traveller.org/grthm)  \nWant to learn some useful words and phrases in Romani Dialect?  \nRoma, Romany Gypsies, Manuches, Kale and Sinti and people with Roma descent live in various countries across the world.  \nThere are more than 10 million people of Romani descent in Europe alone.
