Sunday Telegraph Cryptic 2897 Monday May 1St 2017

Just two I need confirmation on to finish, any help appreciated.
6dn Bird making terrible din, perhaps heartlessly. 9L S?N?P?P?R. Is it Sandpiper?
8dn Like many European languages in court. 7L R?M?N?E. Is it romance?

[Captain2]

6d Yes, anagram of din per(h)aps

[Captain2]

I have 'Romance' as well as in 'to court' and can see a link of sorts but not entirely sure how.

[dannyk13]

To romance someone is to court them.

[Mamyalynne]

(to) Court (to) Romance ?

[Captain2]

I get that Danny, it's the build up I'm a bit puzzled by - or is it that a lot of european languages are based on Romany........
