  • The Domari-speaking (or rather, historically speaking) community in Syria, commonly identified as Dom and Nawar (and simply "gypsies" in English), is estimated to number 100–250,000 or 250–300,000 people. The vast majority is sedentary. There are semi-nomadic groups, some moving outside the country. In Aleppo, the Dom community is probably the largest, while they are reported to live in Damascus, Homs and Latakia as well. The community is highly marginalised in society, and they are referred to as Qurbāṭ (ʾərbāṭ in Aleppo) and Qarač in the northern part, and Nawar (widely used in the Levant) elsewhere. These terms are used for various groups that mainly share socio-economic profile. The community is divided into clans. The Domari are believed to have migrated from India via Persia. They seem to have been an Indian nomadic caste specializing in metalwork and entertainment. The language is Indo-Aryan, closely related to Central Indian and Northwest Indian. The Dom language (Domari) in the Middle East is known as Nawari. Domari shows Turkic, Kurdish and Arabic influence. There has been a language shift into Arabic. The exonym "Nawar" could be used sometimes offensively, denoting a contemptible and immoral lifestyle associating them with beggars, itinerants, and thieves. During the Syrian civil war, there were several reports regarding Syrian Dom immigrants in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan. (en)
  • I rom in Siria si identificano con la comunità anticamente di lingua domari, comunemente nota come Dom e Nawar (e semplicemente "zingari" in inglese), stimata in numero di 100–250.000 [1] o 250–300.000 persone. [2] La stragrande maggioranza è sedentaria. [1] Ci sono gruppi semi-nomadi, alcuni si spostano fuori dal paese. [2] Ad Aleppo, la comunità Dom è probabilmente la più grande, mentre si dice che vivano anche a Damasco, Homs e Latakeh. [3] La comunità è fortemente emarginata nella società e viene chiamata Qurbāṭ ( ʾərbāṭ ad Aleppo) e Qarač nella parte settentrionale, e Nawar (ampiamente usata nel Levante) altrove. [3] Questi termini sono usati per vari gruppi che condividono principalmente il profilo socioeconomico. [3] La comunità è divisa in clan. [3] Si ritiene che i Domari siano emigrati dall'India attraverso la Persia. Sembrano essere stati una casta nomade indiana specializzata in oggetti in metallo e intrattenimento. [4] La loro lingua è indo-ariana, strettamente correlata all'India centrale e all'India nord-occidentale . [4] Il linguaggio Dom (Domari) in Medio Oriente è noto come Nawari . [5] Il Domari mostra influenza turca, curda e araba. [5] I Dom hanno inoltre avuto una deriva linguistica verso l'arabo. L'esonimo "Nawar" potrebbe essere talvolta usato in modo offensivo, denotando uno stile di vita spregevole e immorale che li associa a mendicanti, itineranti e ladri. Durante la guerra civile siriana, ci sono stati diversi rapporti riguardanti Dom siriani rifugiati in Turchia, Libano e Giordania. (it)
