URJ Online Communications Master Word List MASTER WORD LIST ReformJudaism.org Revised 01/03/2019 This list of transliterated Hebrew and often-used Jewish terms has been compiled by the Marketing and Communications department of the Union for Reform Judaism. It was adapted from a list created by the editors of URJ Press. Spellings and italicizations have been changed and updated over time with the following considerations: Search engine optimization (SEO): words that are commonly searched in Google and other search engines have been altered to favor the most-searched spellings of the word, to enhance the SEO of ReformJudaism.org, encouraging the widest audience possible. Additional review by a Hebrew expert: some changes were made based upon technical and lexiconic considerations and to improve the consistency (secondary to consideration of the SEO for the most common terms) We strive to use these spellings and italicizations as consistently as possible throughout all our printed and digital products. This list is a work in progress and may be periodically updated to add new words. 1
