In our study we introduce a Roma community in Tiszavasvári, Hungary. The members of this community speak by using linguistic resources linked to Hungarian or to Romani, always suited to the purpose of the communication. It is described by the term of translanguaging, which refers not only to a way of speaking, but also to a pedagogical perspective and approach based on translingual speaking. We give an overview of the language socialization of the community shaped in the clash of the integrated bilingual norms of the community and the monolingual norms of the majority environment. We introduce the language program „Szó-Beszéd.Kom” developed by the colleagues of the Magiszter Kindergarten in Tiszavasvári, which is a reaction to the difficulties emerged from the contrast of these ideologies. We examine the new possibilities offered for the Kindergarten by the pedagogy of translingual communication, which has been applied in the sister school, the Magiszter Elementary School from the academic year 2017/2018.
