Cañi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Cani)
For the Spanish footballer nicknamed 'Cani', see Rubén Gracia.
Cañí is a Spanish adjective, which refers to the Gypsy race.[1] It may also refer to:
- La España cañí, a set phrase that refers to folkloric Spain and is sometimes used derogatorily.
- España Cañí, meaning Gypsy Spain, a Spanish pasodoble often paid at bullfights, and also known as the Spanish Gypsy Dance.
It is not to be mistaken with cani, a violent urban tribe of Spain.[2] Note that in Spanish n and ñ are two different consonants with different pronunciation.
On a related note, cani has been defined by Anthony Robbins in his "Personal Power" book as an acronym for "constant and never-ending improvement", as an English version of the Japanese word "Kaizen", meaning "continuous improvement", also known in Korean as "Do".
