does anyone here have much info on irish travellers, especially cant? i’m still developing a character, i’m thinking of her being a traveller, and want to know if i’d be offensive w anything 😭
uh so a few questions if anyone wants to answer
1. what are some neutral/positive terms in use to travellers? i know lucht siúil in irish, and mincéirí may be in cant..? i know basically nothing, i only found out one of the terms i thought was neutral was actually a slur from a romani tiktoker 😭
2. where is cant developed from? what would be the correct name for it? any info on the language is welcome lol
3. things to avoid in the character/character design (i wont be basing much around her ethnicity anyway, if anything).
4. where do you consider your roots to be from? ireland, england, norse, even if theres a region that would help a lot
5. do much travellers still travel? like are they still nomads?
literally ANY info would be welcome, i know nothing and cant find much 😭
