Look at your subjects palm; talk about their life line.  Have a crystal ball.  They're usually dressed like gypsies.  Say things like 'your future looks happy' or whatever.

There's no getting around the fact that people from different geographic locations sound differently.\n\nThere's no getting around the fact that people with higher education typically have a better vocabulary.\n\nI would never presume to attach a skin color to these statements, nor should anyone else.\n\nPS. Every time I open my mouth people ask me if I'm from NY and if my family is in the mafia.

I speak standard English a go down to the hood all the time. I never had that problem no one will care. Well unless you start talking like Braxton on Jammie Fox. Or unless you talk in a way to make yourself seem better than that others then that's your problem. It you say things in away that were people interpret as trying to prove you better than some else. People will sense that your trying to use big words or talking in a way on propose to insult their intelligents.  I use proper English, I hear blacks who know nothing about me, talk in a manner to make is seems he's better than me where I found it a insult, an d I was giving him a interview. Stereotyping me, If you talk to anyone in a way to show your better than people they will find it a insult. If you can't relate to people then you can never reach them.

The word gypsy has been used to refer to many different types of cultural groups that travel from place to place, but is especially affiliated with a group who speaks Romani.  \n\nWikipedia states they are located in "Southern and Eastern Europe, Western Asia and the Middle East "\n\nSome places Wikipedia lists as being the place this language is spoken:\nTurkey \nAlbania\nGreece\nUkraine \nWales \nFinland \nAustria\nCroatia \nCzech Republic\nFrance\nGermany\nItaly\nNetherlands\nPoland\nSerbia\nMontenegro\nSlovenia\nSwitzerland \nSlovakia\nHungary\nRomania\nUkraine \nEstonia\nLatvia\nLithuania\nBelarus\nRussia\n\nThese are places that show evidence of this language, and languages are often strongly tied to cultures.\n\nThis website also has resources that would be able to get you in contact with a person who would know how to get to know gypsies:\nhttp://www.gypsyloresociety.org/cultureintro.html

Well, I completely understand where you're coming from. You want to be loved and welcomed, but unfortunately, not all in-laws work out that way (no matter what the race, religion, etc.). My grandmother's mom HATED my grandfather for years, and he wound up eloping to marry her.  They are both the same exact religion and ethnicity too. Eventually, the mother grew to appreciate and respect my grandfather and my grandparents have been married for almost 60 years. \n\nThing is, you shouldn't have to deal with going someplace where you are "tolerated", but again you don't always have control over that. All that you can do, is just suck it up for your wife, kids, and be the better man. Eventually, I would say talk to your wife about having your OWN holidays though and if her parents want to visit YOU then that's fine, this way they are on "your turf" now so to speak and if they disrespect you, you can ask them to kindly leave your home.

Slavian - or more properly in English, Slavic - is a cultural term and not a racial phenotype.  The five phenotypes are: Caucasian/Caucasoid, Mongolian/Mongoloid, Ethopian/Neg roid,  Malayan/Australoid, and Amerindian.  Sometimes a sixth race, Capoid, is also included.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_%28historical_definitions%29\n\n"Historians do not agree over the origin of the Illyrians. Some of them maintain that the Illyrians descended from the pre-Indo-European Pelasgians, while most scholars place them in the later wave of Indo-European invasions. "\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albania\n\n"Whether the Pelasgian language was pre-Indo-European or not, and the extent to which it was a single language or not, are modern disputes that are colored by contemporary nationalist issues. Scholars have since come to use the term 'Pelasgian' somewhat indiscriminately, to indicate all the autochthonous inhabitants of these lands before the arrival of the Greeks ..."\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelasgians\n\n"Physical anthropology defines Caucasoid with a pattern of physical traits typical of humans indigenous to an area including Europe, South Asia, West Asia and parts of North Africa, Central Asia."\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasoid\n\n"Indo-European is a linguistic term, referring to:\n * the family of Indo-European languages \n * the associated speakers, the Indo-Europeans\n * the academic field of Indo-European studies\n * sometimes, for brevity, to Proto-Indo-European:\n          o the Proto-Indo-European language\n          o the associated hypothetical speakers or                             \n          o hypothetical ethnic group, the Proto-Indo-Europeans"\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-european\n\n"The Indo-European languages are a family of several hundred languages and dialects (443 according to the SIL estimate), including most of the major languages of Europe, as well as many in Southwest Asia, Central Asia and Southern Asia. "\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-European_languages\n\nTherefore, academics who characterize Albanians (Illyrians) as an Indo-European people would likely consider them of the Caucasoid phenotype.  Academics who consider them Pelasgian either would not know how to racially categorize them or would consider the matter up to debate.

Usually they use the small i instead of saying I. They also communicate with u or r or some other single letter so you cannot figure out what they mean. tftp\nThanks for two points

Is your SAP option on?  It changes the language you hear to Spanish.\n\nWow, people get mean.  The same thing happened to us (we have a two year old boy).  We were watching the Simpsons (only show that was doing it) and thought it was a joke, until it did it the next time.  Aren't they cute?
