Bohemian

Everyone knows what the word bohemian means: “one who likes going out at night, living in bars, drinking and dancing”. Well then. ______ word comes to us from the French bohémien. The French used this word to designate gypsies from Bohemia, a region of former Czechoslovakia, who liked night parties, singing, dancing, without worrying about the next day. The meaning of this word later became generalized and came to indicate anyone who had these habits. And it was with this general sense that she entered the Portuguese language.
