Scandoromani: Remnants of a Mixed Language is the first,
comprehensive, international description of the language of the
Swedish and Norwegian Romano, also labeled resande/reisende. The
language, an official minority language in Sweden and Norway, has a
history in Scandinavia going back to the early 16th century. A
mixed language of Romani and Scandinavian, it is spoken today by a
vanishingly small population of mainly elderly people. This book is
based on in-depth linguistic interviews with two native speakers of
different families (one of whom is the co-author) as well as
reviews of earlier sources on Scandoromani. The study reveals a
number of interesting features of the language, as well as of mixed
languages in general. In particular, the study gives support to the
model of autonomy of mixed languages.
