Abstract
The text is concentrated on the northern-central dialect of Romani, whose (former) speakers compose up to 75 percent of the current Romani population in the CR. Following a description of the current sociolinguistic situation of the dialect and the overview of the history of Romani teaching in the CR, the text concentrates on the current situation in the teaching of the language and summarizes the experience with the introduction of a course on northern-central Romani into a few Czech elementary schools, an experiment that was conducted in 2009 in the framework of a series of sociolinguistic researches (2007-2010) into the situation of Romani in the CR by the Seminar of Romani Studies (Department of Southern and Central Asia, Faculty of Arts, Charles University, Prague).
