Summary: | The terms "Family" and "Gypsy names and their language" from Gypsy slang in current Spanish lexicography. The paper deals with two lexical fields in Spanish of Gypsy origin: "Family" and "The Title of Gypsies and their Language". It comments on their treatment in contemporary Spanish lexicography and analyses in detail their history in previous editions of the Dictionary of the Spanish Royal Academy. It questions the suitability of lexicographical marks used, mainly in the Academy's Dictionary. Finally, there is a general comparative study of the treatment of these lexical fields between the 22nd edition of the Dictionary (DRAE) and Contemporary Spanish Dictionary (DEA). (Spanish text).
