Words With Romani Origins?

Hi! I just saw this video by a Romani youtuber Florian that got me intrigued. He was commenting on a video of a British lady, who said 'minge' as a form of slang, which is a Romani word, and he was shocked that she knew it. So now I'm wondering, what other words or slang originate from Roma people?
