Vlax Romani is an Indo-Aryan dialect/language spoken mainly in Southeastern Europe by Roma people. It is considered either an independent language or a dialect of the Romani language, as it is mutually intelligible with many other Romani dialects (mostly Balkanic, Carpathic). Vlax Romani is the most widely-spoken dialect of the Romani language.

Writing systems

Vlax Romani is written using the Romani alphabet, which is based on the Latin alphabet with several additional characters. In the area of former Soviet Union it is written also with the Cyrillic alphabet.
