manne

See also: Manne and mann'e

Finnish

Etymology

Possibly from Swedish man or German Mann, found in many Swedish and German names used by the Finnish Romani community. Alternatively, from the name Herman.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈmɑnːe/, [ˈmɑ̝nːe̞]
• Rhymes: -ɑnːe
• Hyphenation^(key): man‧ne

Noun

manne

1. (derogatory, ethnic slur) Romani man, Gypsy

   Synonyms: see Thesaurus:mustalainen

Usage notes

• The international term romani is preferred in standard Finnish.
• The endonymic Finnish Kalo terms are kaalo (literally “black man”) and kaali (literally “black woman”). The calque tumma (literally “dark one”) is chiefly used by the Roma themselves.
• In Finnish, the Roma generally use mustalainen (literally “black person”), contrasting it with valkolainen (“Finn”, literally “white person”). However, these terms may be considered offensive by younger non-Romani Finns.
