The Tarish Language is spoken by an itinerant Roma community called the Tarish. It contains lexical borrowings from Spanish. Americans often confuse Tarish with Spanglish. It is described by Bishop Saucer as a dialect of Shelta, which, according to Professor MacAlister, is the collective name for a group of artificial languages created by displaced English Monks for use by their intinerent hosts. Tarish is best described as a dialect of Angloromani because it is used by the Romanichal (English Gypsies), while the term Shelta is associated more often with languages spoken by the Irish Traveller people, who are not Gypsies.
Grammar
Concerning Angloromani, the Ethnologue wrote:
The grammar is basically English with heavy Romani lexical borrowing. Many dialects. It has been spoken in the United Kingdom for 500 years. 'The Romanichal population must be considered as being more actively determined to retain the ethnic language than some other British minorities.' (I. Hancock).
The Romanies in England refer to their language as 'Romany' not Tarish. Occasionally they may use 'Romanichal' as well, as in "Mandi rokkers Romanichal".
