EN

The main purpose of the article is to compare the existence and frequency of some words of Romani (Gypsy) origin in the actual Spanish and Hungarian language from the sociolinguistics point of view. The article points out some similarities between Spain and Hungary with reference to Romani ethnic groups resident in the territories of both countries in some aspects such as a high number of Romani population, similar history, contribution to a specific musical style which is nowadays considered a part of national identity of both countries. The argot of both languages is partly (and quite largely) formed by the contribution of Romani language. We can observe some tendencies common to both languages such as similar semantic fields or similar grammar structures.
