The Holocaust in English. In Hebrew it is Shoah (שו××”) (also spelled Sho'ah and Shoa), meaning "calamity" . The Romany and Sinti, who, percentagewise of their population, lost more people than even the Jews (estimates could be as high as 80% of European Romany)have their own word for the genocide on their people:O Porrajmos (see www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7IMOFCj67Y) It is high time that the Romany Holocaust is recognised. Even at recent services at Auchswitz, they were refused permission to grieve.
