How do you say hello in gyspy romani?

There's no single, universally accepted way to say "hello" in Romani. Romani is a complex language with many dialects, and the greeting can vary depending on the specific dialect and the context.

However, some common ways to say "hello" in Romani include:

* "Salam" (pronounced "sa-lahm"): This is a common greeting used in many Romani dialects and is also used in other languages like Arabic and Persian.

* "Shun" (pronounced "shoon"): This is another common greeting, particularly in some Eastern European dialects.

* "Džan" (pronounced "jan"): This is more of a general greeting and can be used for "hello," "goodbye," or "good day."

* "Del" (pronounced "del"): This is a more formal greeting, similar to "good day."

It's important to note that these are just a few examples, and the best way to learn the appropriate greeting for a specific situation is to consult a Romani speaker or resource.

Please remember that the term "Gypsy" is considered offensive by many Romani people. The preferred term is "Rom" or "Roma."
