interesting article, i've never heard of the Lyuli before. It'd be improved by more information on their native language, however - the only reference to it at the moment is the comment that "Luli for clan is tupar". Any other info available? Is it an Indo-Aryan language like Roma, as suggested by their Indian origin story, or is it Turkic like most of the rest of Central Asia? -- Krsont 23:45, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
The Central Asian Mugat are usually bilingual in Tajik and Uzbek, often also speaking Russian and other languages - in Uzbekistan the community speaks a unique mixture of Tajik and Uzbek as their mother tongue. Tajik or Persian is generally their native language everywhere.
Traditionally, they have a special vocabulary that is NOT in any way Romani, but you can find it on the page titled “Persian Romani”.
We are not Dom and don’t call ourselves gypsies in English, and the origins of Mugat/Ghorbat and Roma or Dom are completely different GharibShah7 ( talk) 04:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
The traditional occupations are similar to those of the Roma: chiromancy, quackery, musicians, stealing etc. - O Rly? Hakluyt bean 22:54, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

The persian word مغان spells Mughan ('noon', ن at end) instead of Mughat ('ta', ت at end) . SO would it be Mughan (مغان) or Mughat (مغات)? I am not editing for i am not sure. Can you please correct? 103.94.135.29 ( talk) 13:49, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
The name in Central Asia is usually spelled “Mugat” in Latin and Мугат in Cyrillic. Another variant is Мугад with final -d, and this is very close to what was recorded in Iran in Sykes’ Gurbati vocabulary from Kerman as مُگّد muggad ‘husband’. People in Afghanistan tend to write it مگت (the final -t is the result of devoicing)
Although some people have spelled it “Mughat” with gh, it’s not correct, the sound is /g/ and not the phone represented by غ. Also the /a/ is short not long so it should be either مگت or مگد
Additionally, we don’t agree with the etymology that derived this name from “fire worhsipper” - it’s quite insulting to us as Muslims and we have our own theories GharibShah7 ( talk) 04:10, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
Lyuli means nothing more than gypsy and Uzbek people will use the same word for the Romani. The self names of the people are Mugat and Ghorbat. There is also a page for Ghorbat - this one should be renamed Mugat. Also there is no proof the groups in Turkey or Jugi of Iran are actually Mugat/Ghorbat. Yes the Abdal of Turkey are related by language but they are a different population and not Mugat. GharibShah7 ( talk) 04:18, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
Another thing I would like to add is that nothing is mentioned about the dire circumstances of the community in Afghanistan - there is a page for the peripatetic groups in the country and “Jogi” there is the same as the Mugat. Additionally there are other Mugat communities in Afghanistan who are not considered “Jogi” like the Haidari, their name is spelled as Magat. GW Leitner spelled it Magadd when they came to India, and they also live in Pakistan, and travelled to China historically but none of this is mentioned.

There are several well-known Mugat people from different countries but the only photo reputation we get is a woman begging with child GharibShah7 ( talk) 04:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
Unfortunately, it has become the fashion among English speakers to rewrite any group labeled Gypsy as Romani people, they make the mistake of thinking gypsy is slur, even though these groups are not Romani, nor are they related to them. These groups neither speak the Romani language nor have Romani culture. Not every group that carries the label gypsy are romani people.
