Abstract

This paper first summarises historical research issues related to the Boyash communities in Eastern Slovakia and points out that the existing information is limited and rudimentary. A separate section is devoted to the categorisations of Boyash people. While these are crucial, they are of little use for linguistic inquiry. This is followed by a brief account of the migration history of the Slovakian Boyash. The paper focuses on preliminary linguistic data obtained through my dialectological fieldwork over the last decade. I present the system of Slavic and Hungarian loanwords, examine phonological and morphological features in detail and compare them with other language varieties in Slovakia and Hungary. The paper offers a brief description of the linguistic reality of an ethnic group that is still largely unknown.
